Luckily the US dollar is back up much higher now than it was when you wrote this last summer, which is good for travellers. I don’t think it will last though, so do all your travelling now! lol

I’ve noticed a bounce back in the dollar to Thai baht. But it still isn’t back to where it was a couple years ago. Although travel there is still cheap, it is not the bargain it was in the past.

Though the falling dollar might not have the purchasing power oversees, let’s not overlook that a recession makes travelling cheaper. The hotel and airlines industry must slash rates like never before. And of course the biggest benefit– less crowds!

The dollar has always been shooting up and down and probably always will, the only way that currencies will stabilize is when we have one currency for the whole planet.

Your analysis is right on target. Moreover, it demonstrates why a capitalist system will eventually self-correct, unless there is political intervention like protectionism.

In addition, it makes our goods cheaper overseas. I have seen a large increase in orders from overseas in the past year.

For me the constant decline of the American Dollar is going to affect me this summer. I am off to Orlando later in the year and the exchange rate from the Pound to Dollar is in absolute turmoil. I remember last time I was out there I was getting nearly 2$ to the £. Still, it could be a lot worse and over the past few months it has picked up ever so slightly. Although I would like it to go up a little bit more before I go out there in August.

Lots of people in America can travel to Mexico to have much cheaper vacation if you compare the travel from USA to Spain for example.
