Impact geopolitical situation, Trump, ... on air travel to the US

[DannyVDB]

Dear all,

I found this interesting thread

https://www.airliners.net/forum/viewtop ... cab6dea21c

It is even more interesting since I saw the pax figures for 02/2025 at BRU: since years the top-ten countries included the US. Not anymore so, now number 10 is UAE.

I hear from colleagues and friends they refuse to visit the US under the current circumstances. Moreover, one of my colleagues wanted to go to a conference in San Francisco at the end of the year but will probably not be able to enter the US because her nationality is of one of the countries that are on the list of countries of which citizens are not welcome anymore (Trump decision). She applied for the Belgian nationality as well, not yet completed.

Do you expect those impacts to become more important? Other impacts? What with the airlines serving these markets? Maybe other markets will profit ...?

Cheers,
Danny

but

Some.people would refrain from talking politics on this forum, . " No place for politics here ,".
USA rules, Russia continuing its agression, Reanda also behaving as troublemaker in East Africa, .. on luchtvaartnieuws.nl and other Dutch sites you can read about politicians trying to reduce growth of AMS, Lelystad airport.being
,boycotted even before.opening..
