The Gulf Coast is open for business

Posted on 8:26 AM by
This weekend President Obama and his family are traveling to Florida's Gulf Coast to soak up some sun. The family trip is part of an effort to encourage people to visit those beaches that are free of oil.

Best Western is also encouraging travelers to proceed with their summer vacation plans in the Gulf states.

Beaches along the coast in all states are open for business, and popular inland destinations such as New Orleans and Orlando foresee no impact on visitors. It continues to be safe to travel to all states bordering the Gulf.

If you're concerned about any potential impact from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, Best Western encourages you to check with local destinations in order to get the most up-to-date information. To make that easy, here are some links.
