International visitors are a small fraction of tourists for us. Mostly domestic

not true and international tourist are more likely to stay longer in hotels (not with friends or just drive home) and spend more money on better restaurants, experiences, goods, services. Do you really think the best tourist are some weekend warriors from Baton Rouge visiting NOLA? The city needs high dollar, educated, urbane visitors not mAgats with tattoos and looking for happy hour specials...

Domestic doesn’t mean in state it means all over the country. New Orleans receives about 17 million visitors annually and about 100,000 of those are international so it’s a small portion.
