What is seldom explained is that virtually every currency in the world is dropping against the U.S. dollar as the prospect of higher interest rates in the United States is creating a demand for U.S. dollars. The Canadian dollar, which has gained dramatic- ally against most world currencies except the U.S. dollar in the past few years, has remained relatively stable in the past few months against other currencies. Some in the travel industry are concerned that the drop in the dollar and all the publicity might keep Canadians home this winter. Informed travel agents, however, can probably reassure worried clients by stressing the strength of the Canadian dollar if the client is considering a European holiday, and by putting the recent drop in perspective if the client is considering a - holiday in the United States or some place in the Caribbean. Both Cuba and Jamaica are optimistic this winter because the Canadian dollar has not dropped against their currencies and tour operators foresee a five to 10 per cent increase in package costs to most southern destinations which they feel should not scare off too many travellers especially if the agent points out how little this is on a per day basis. Most agree that price increases will be higher on all inclusive holidays but even here there are still bright spots. The client knows the full price in ad- vance and does not have to convert a large amount of Canadian currency into U.S. dollars at the going rate on departure. Unless the dollar plunges precipitously, travel agents should be able to counsel worried clients and explain the realities behinds the headlines. A winter vacation has become almost essential for many in this country who are unlikely to abandon this. tradition if their agents convince them that the dollar is not worthless yet. — Canadian Travel Courier.
