In 2023, the share of travel services in the US services exports stood at approximately 14.68%. The forecast for 2024 shows a slight decline to 14.62%, with a consistent downward trend observed each subsequent year, reaching 14.39% by 2028. This represents an average year-on-year decrease, reflecting a subtle contraction in the sector's share of services exports.
