The brief USD spike in 2022 should not be considered the norm, but we are not seeing anything close to a dollar crash or "massive fall" at all.
Don't think exchange rates are going to affect travel at all in the present. Your bank balance, in whatever currency you use, will.
Exactly and that is why travel by Australians to the U.S. is much lower right now. The same is going to happen to U.S. travelers now going to Europe. The dollar has taken a massive hit and the middle class families of 4 plus that have enjoyed Europe will now have to rethink travel as Europe becomes much more expensive. We are going to see a massive dropoff of Middle class travel as the dollar continues its massive fall. Delta will need to adjust as the dollar takes a hit!
