No Islamophobia
Destinations perceived to exhibit Islamophobic sentiments and behavior have a negative impact on Muslims. Safety and security are the top priorities that any traveler keeps in consideration, regardless of age, gender, race, religion, or ethnic composition. Given the hate crimes reported in some regions, the majority of Muslims would rather avoid destinations perceived to be unwelcoming.
