For | | more than two - thirds it’s their | first flight over the ocean. Ameri- | |cans in their 40s are the largest | age - group. The U. S. Office of International Trade reports that last year just | under 700,000 Americans went/ | abroad for a new record. This year j | the office predicts 750,000 tourists will set a new mark. It does not \inelude trips to Canada, Mexico} |and the U.
