Carriers could benefit from US Government’s pledge to increase visa throughput for Brazil and China

Small steps by the US to increase visa processing capacity for Brazil and China are the result of a campaign by the country's travel and tourism advisory board to enrich understanding about the economic repercussions of failing to bolster efforts to increase the annual number of visitors from those countries. If those initial moves to strengthen visa processing capacity are successful, more initiatives could follow to capitalise on the economic benefits in opening travel to more visitors from Brazil and China to the US. Airlines already entrenched in those markets stand to increase traffic from those countries if travel restrictions are further loosened.
