It's amazing how some businesses this affects and how others it doesn't. If you are dependent on foreign travel I can see how this might affect things. On the other hand we are lucky enough to be in an area that does not depend on guests from other countries. We actually have had a record March this year. It could also be that we are getting more business because people don't want to travel out of the country. So if you look at it that way maybe you could advertise staying local so to speak. Might also be a good chance to look at how you advertise and where your customer base is. Might want to start looking at advertising more on the state side. Just a thought. Hope things turn around for those that are hurting for business!.
Actually, we don't depend upon foreign travel that much, has dwindled off over the years as the dollar has strengthened. 'Tis something more elusive going on. Last year was our best year ever by far. Twice as many bookings for the warmer months than this year. Definitely multiple levels of travel "climate" change going on. Uncertainty in the air in the Northeast...
BTW, this isn't just us, our closest BB competitor in town is experiencing the exact same thing. We are virtually even in seasonal reservations.
