Government should "give up" looking to limit cruise ships
Legal uncertainty could be generated

I doubt very much that cruise ships docking in Palma create thousands of jobs. And it sounds to me that regulating the number of cruise ships that can dock at any one time is an attempt to apply “serious and rigorous” management.
Once again Palma Council are up to its old tricks regarding NOT wanting TOURISTS in there city. Do they NOT understand that it IS we the Tourist that PAYS the wages of nearly 95% of the households that live and work in Palma, what are these residents going to do for work if tourist are told WE PALMA COUNCIL DONT want you spending your money in our City please go somewhere else. The councillors that say this must be Millionaires who dont need money to live, eat & survive . Get over yourselves and stop this NONSENSE you need Tourists to SERVIVE
The mentality of believing that there should be no limit on cruises, no limit on planes, no limit on anything might at first appear to be commercial utopia is very misguided and leads to the challenges associated with overtourism, a lack of water, power etc and a wholly unsustainable business model....self-interested parties who currently believe in the above need to get educated as fast as possible...but will they, only time will tell!!!
