Inbound tourism volume in Mexico 2016-2022

In 2022, Mexico welcomed more than 38 million international tourists, increasing its tourism volume by 20 percent versus a year earlier, though not completely recovering from the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Mexico, as one of the few exceptions worldwide, did not adopt strict restrictions to the entry of foreign visitors during the health crisis. However, the global air travel halt and the fear of contagion severely impacted the country’s inbound tourism in both years, which up until 2019 had registered a steady increase.Business tourism in MexicoWhile the amount of total international travelers in Mexico was growing over the years prior to the 2020 COVID-19 outbreak, the country’s same-day international guests were lessening, from over 77 million in 2016 to roughly 63 million excursionists in 2019. In the inbound business travel segment, tourism expenditures apart from transportation expenses have also decreased in recent years, contrary to the annual total spending from travelers motivated by personal reasons. During 2019, business travel in Mexico City was reported to cost international guests nearly 220 U.S. dollars a day, with hotels accounting for over two thirds of that expense.International air travel into MexicoIn 2019, around 17.6 international visitors passed through Mexico City International Airport, the leading Mexican airport for inbound travel. During this time, the North American country’s flag carrier Aeroméxico handled the largest share of its international air passenger traffic, with nearly 16 percent of the market. That same year, Grupo Aeroméxico generated a revenue of nearly 68.8 billion Mexican pesos, which was a decrease from the almost 70.3 billion Mexican pesos produced a year prior.

于2022年，墨西哥迎来了超过3800万国际游客，相较于前一年旅游量增长了20%，尽管尚未完全从冠状病毒（COVID-19）大流行中恢复过来。在全球范围内为数不多的例外之一，墨西哥在健康危机期间并未对外国游客的入境实施严格限制。然而，全球航空旅行的停摆以及传染病的恐惧在两年内都严重影响了该国的入境旅游业，而在此之前，直至2019年，旅游业一直保持着稳步增长。墨西哥的商业旅游业尽管在2019年COVID-19疫情爆发前的几年中，墨西哥的总国际游客数量呈增长趋势，但其当日国际游客数量却有所减少，从2016年的超过7700万降至2019年的约6300万游客。在入境商务旅行领域，除交通费用外的旅游支出在近年来也有所下降，这与因个人原因而旅行的游客的年度总消费形成了鲜明对比。2019年，据报道，墨西哥城的商务旅行每天对国际游客的费用接近220美元，其中酒店费用占总费用的三分之二以上。墨西哥的国际航空旅行2019年，大约有1760万国际游客通过墨西哥城国际机场，这是墨西哥主要的入境机场。在此期间，北美国家的旗舰航空公司Aeroméxico处理了其最大的国际航空客运市场份额，约占市场的16%。同年，Aeroméxico集团的总收入接近68.8亿墨西哥比索，这一数字低于前一年的近703亿墨西哥比索。
