n.a. = Not Available

* The Mexico 2002 and 2003 are revised estimates based upon new data from Banco de Mexico
The revision to Mexico also impacts the total U.S. Resident figure. No other numbers were revised

* * Note: Overseas excludes Canada and Mexico (For those two countries visitation estimates include all modes, for all other countries estimates are available only for air travel to that country). The Canadian and Mexican travel estimates were obtained from their respective governments

The Visitation estimates are made based upon the airlines who voluntarily participate in this program. If a major carrier does not participate and we do not have access to other carriers who generate passenger travel to that destination, our estimates will be affected.
