The US market is the second largest market in terms of outbound travel with more than 40 million Americans travelling abroad, accounting for 63.5 million trips. This outbound tourism is expected to increase by a healthy 11% over 2012-17 and reaching 66.9 million in 2017. Mexico alone is experiencing a luxury boom. With a GDP of $1.2 trillion, Mexico is the world s fifth-largest emerging economy behind the BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India and China) and the second-largest in Latin America. In 2012, Mexico s luxury goods market stood at $1.5bn, after growing more than 15% in just one year. www.iltm.com/americas 5
