BP Oil Spill Claimants making tourism related economic loss claims may have their claims bolstered by the recent Louisiana Department of Culture, Recreation and Tourism study that indicates that 17% of potential regional tourists have canceled or delayed a trip to Louisiana because of the BP oil spill related pollution problems.
Furthermore, about two-thirds of the potential regional tourists feel that the oil-spill problem is worse (42.7 percent) or just as bad (19.5 percent) as the devastation caused to Louisiana in 2005 by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
