US EditionExpedia cites lower demand for US travel for weaker-than-expected revenue
- On May 9, 2025, Expedia Group announced that its first-quarter revenue fell short of expectations, primarily due to softer travel activity within the U.S. Market.
- This decline follows a 3.3% drop in international visitor entries through March and falling American economic confidence for five consecutive months.
- Expedia's net bookings into the U.S. Fell 7%, with Canadian bookings down nearly 30%, while Hilton and Airbnb noted similar declines in U.S. Travel demand.
- CEO Ariane Gorin stated on a May 9 investor call that although demand for travel to the U.S. Remains subdued, there have been some shifts in travel patterns.
- The slowdown suggests ongoing economic and tariff-related uncertainty will weigh on U.S. Travel, though some leaders remain optimistic about recovery later this year.
