The US unemployment rate dropped to 3.6% in March, and with more people working, Don Wiggins, the CEO of Heritage Capitol Group, predicts this will boost tourism rates in the Sunshine State.
Right now, there’s an uptick in air travel.
According to the Transportation Security Administration, the strongest travel demand is for domestic and short-haul international trips.Wiggins believes this will draw in tourism locally. “That’s going to limit how far they’re willing to travel. So, I think you’re going to see more people stay closer to home just because of that,” said Wiggins.
In 2021, Visit Jacksonville, the city’s public-private tourism marketing agency, reported a strong return of tourism.Wiggins says the Russia-Ukraine conflict could be the deciding factor on international tourism in the Jacksonville area. He says there’s no way to predict what is going to happen exactly, but if the conflict worsens it could lead to less international travelers.
