I've just seen what some Greeks wrote about losing their livelihood and then emigrating, but recent statistics are hard to come by. I would think that the overall tourism in Greece is alive and well (particularly with EU tourism to competing Turkey collapsing due to Erdogan's arbitrary and autocratic appearances) but the Aegean islands affected by migration have suffered and people who lived and worked there go elsewhere.
Based on the number of tourist areas that depend on/benefit from cheap labor -- there's not a lot of me that believes this is a real mechanism...
