1999 Annual Visitor Research Report
The market-specific focus of the HTA has required READ to develop better data on the residence of visitors. The best source for data on the residence of foreign visitors is the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), which monitors the status of persons entering the U.S. from foreign countries. However, the INS does not maintain information on whether Canadian visitors have arrived on Eastbound or Westbound flights.
