Travel is among the largest private-sector employers in the United States, supporting 14.9 million jobs in 2013, including 7.9 million directly in the travel industry and 7.0 million in other industries. A huge thank you to our local travel and hospitality businesses and employees. Your financial contribution to our local economy and welcoming spirit to our city is sincerely appreciated.
