Spain, France, and Italy are expected to experience a significant drop of tourists travelling from the UK owing to weaker exchange rate, imposition of tariffs, higher air fare rates, and higher travel insurance premiums.

No deal exit will have cascading effect to the UK economy, which is estimated to negatively impact the UK outbound tourism industry.
