Summary Crisis recovery plans for individual businesses and/or tourism regions after a crisis are a vital part of the planning process. Tourism locations can be impacted by natural disasters and are often unprepared to act once the crisis or disaster has passed. The necessity of a crisis plan needs to be made an important part of any disaster recovery planning process. For example, in two similar events of crisis, Hurricane Katrina and the Indian Ocean Tsunami, economies in those regions have recuperated at drastically different rates. This discussion questions the differences in the disaster recovery process of each of these areas. For example, does a disaster/crisis management plan enhance tourism recovery the speed of tourism economic recovery of a region? The premise of the case is that good planning by tourism regions generally and those destinations in volatile natural areas (e.g. coastal areas subsect to hurricanes, flooding etc.) can assist with speed recoveries
