The cross-border travel index to 2019 went from 112 in June to 115 in July to 118 in September. While the recovery continues, the rate of improvement from month to month has slowed as borders ex-China are now open. Travel in and out of Asia recovered sharply in the quarter, up 16 points, from the high 15s to the mid-70s index to 2019. There is more recovery to come in Asia, especially when China starts to lift restrictions. Summer travel in and out of Europe was also very strong, with the travel index to 2019 in the 130s up 13 points from the third quarter. European travel appears to have benefited most from the strong dollar. Travel outbound from the US to all geographies continued to pick up steam, rising to the mid-130s index to 2019, up 10 points from the third quarter. However, the inbound travel recovery was sluggish. still indexing in the low 90s and up only four points. The strong dollar and delays in visa issuance from some countries appear to be impacting travel into the U.S. Travel into Latin America and the Caribbean remained very strong and stable, indexing around 150 to 2019 levels. Finally, travel in and out of Samia indexed in the mid-120s relative to 2019 up 10 points in the quarter.

Cross-border travel, excluding intra-Europe, has continued to recover, but at a slower pace, up six points from 112 to 118, indexed to 2019, between June and September. For planning purposes, we are assuming that this recent month-to-month pace of recovery sustains through fiscal year 2023. As was the case last year, there will be periods of deceleration and acceleration. Hopefully, China starts easing restrictions as we enter calendar year 2023.
