In early 2026, 2,740 Americans traveled to Russia — 190 more people than in the same period in 2025. The increase is occurring despite limited air service and strained relations between the countries.
If you are planning a trip to Russia or following the state of Russian-American relations, the data shows that visits by Americans are becoming more accessible: despite logistical barriers, the flow of tourists and business people is growing.
