The bar chart illustrates the number of international passengers entering Mexico from four regions — Canada, the USA, Europe, and South America — between 2005 and 2010. The figures are measured in millions.
Overall, the USA consistently accounted for the highest number of visitors throughout the period, while South America contributed the fewest. Canada showed a steady upward trend, whereas European arrivals fluctuated slightly after 2008.
In 2005, the USA brought in around 6.7 million passengers, far exceeding other regions. This figure rose marginally to nearly 7 million by 2007, before dipping to about 6 million in 2009, and then recovering to over 6.5 million in 2010. Canada’s arrivals began at roughly 1.2 million in 2005 and grew steadily each year, reaching about 1.8 million by 2010.
European visitors numbered around 1.5 million in 2005 and increased gradually to almost 1.8 million in 2008. However, this was followed by a decline to 1.5 million in 2009, before a slight rebound in 2010. South America, on the other hand, started at approximately 1.1 million passengers in 2005, dropped sharply in 2006, and then experienced a gradual recovery, reaching around 1.4 million by 2010.
