        San Francisco is a relatively small city. And I agree about London/Paris, though I imagine that there are still plenty of anti-Francs around. Also, if London is more of a hub for other destinations, it would be more likely to be combined with other European destinations. We have many flight options through London from NYC.

          The US only has five in the top 40.

          8: NYC
          21: Vegas
          22: Miami
          26: LA
          32: Orlando


          And, only six in the top 75:

          43: SF

          With just 8 in the top 100:

          78: Honolulu
          92: Washington DC

          It's a big world out there; go see it!

            It surprised me that Honolulu was so far down in the rankings and that Las Vegas made 21. Ok, I get it 21... blackjack...

              These rankings are only for international visitors. If you add domestic tourists then it is a different story.

                Over the last few years I've noticed a lot of Russian tourists and I'd gathered they enjoy Paris because they are often dressed in French clothing. There are a number of Russian Restaurants opening throughout SE Asia.

                  #22? No wonder we have so much traffic lately.

                    Has anyone provided that info? China would surely fill all the top spots if domestic tourists were included.

                    I hope it isn't year round.

                      I'm trying! Really I am. Not hard enough tho....Out of the top 20 cities, I've only been to 4. And, my next trip abroad will mostly be Dublin, and it's not even on the list.

                      BTW, I'm still keeping track of how many times you annoy me.

                        I've only been to 3 of the top 20, but have trips planned to three more in the next 18 months.

                          Yup year round lately.
                          It's starting to look like Manhattan down here.
                          You gotta watch out for pedestrians everywhere too.
                          They just jump out in front of your car everywhere.
