[quote=Anonymous]Only 45-50 percent of US people have Passports. Back in 2008 it hit a low of 30 percent.

And Hotel prices and sports tickets etc. are through the roof. So even short trips are crazy expensive.

For example I have NFL season ticket in NY. I live in DMV last decade but still have them.

Back in 2009 I sell some of my good seats for games. But when I went I sometimes see Eagles Fans, Ravens Fans, Pats Fans in my section who could just go on line buy a tickets for as cheap as 50 to 100 bucks each in a good section. Stay at Hotel by Stadium for like $125 a night or maybe if took Amtrak stay at Cheap Hotel by NYC Penn Station which used to be dumpier over their and in 2009 cheaper hotel prices. Maybe $175 a night it lucky. Be a lot of Cops, Fireman, College kids. They split room two or even four ways and could come see the game and make a weekend. Hotel and game ticket might be as little as $100-$125 person if sharing a room.

Well in 2025 my tickets for the next game I sold for $500 each. Parking in stadium now like like almost $100 for the close spots, Hotels in NYC with Tax for a Saturday Night are pushing $500 a night. Even by Stadium $300 -$350 a night. Most of my tickets go to LLCs, Business to take clients, Or rich neighborhood. I used to sell to cops at $100. I have six tickets. If a family with four kids went to the game tickets alone would be $3,000 my section

And places like Disney World the tickets since 2009 are also up crazy.

Look at Restaurant Week in DC this week. Places have a $65 dinner before tax and tip. That is the Deal .That was like $25 dollars 15 years ago.

Peoples wages have not doubled and tripled since 2009 so hence less money for vacations or even going out.   [/quote]
