Where to buy them
To hold these as real shares you need a stockbroker rather than a CFD provider. If you only want exposure to the price movement, a share CFD does that with leverage — and without ownership.

Frequently asked questions
How many travel stocks are in this list?
3, drawn from our US exchange-listed universe and spread across 2 sectors. 2 of them pay a dividend.
Is this a list of travel stocks to buy?
No. It is a screen — a defined, reproducible filter over a stated universe. A screen tells you which companies share a characteristic; it says nothing about whether the price you would pay today is a sensible one. Nothing here is investment advice.
What is the main risk with travel stocks?
Demand is discretionary and shock-prone; the sector has twice in recent memory lost most of its revenue in a single quarter.
How do I actually buy these from outside the US?
You need a broker that accepts your country of residence and gives you access to US exchanges. To own the shares outright, that usually means an international stockbroker plus a W-8BEN form to claim your treaty rate on dividend withholding.
