Pollution is never good news. That’s the lesson from Venice and Amsterdam. Learn from the mistakes of others, rather than repeating them.
This is good news for Mallorcas economy. As there are not many attractions on the Island during the Winter Months. The lack of Tourism and Winter events has been a major problem for decades. Nothing is done to provide for the Winters. But many like 6 Months work , and 6 Months Holiday.
Well of course there is more demand for stop overs from these giant mega polluters. It’s because Governments who actually care about their local populations, their air quality, their marine welfare and quality tourism are actually banning these horrific giant cruise ships!!! People of Palma will now be able to look forward to swarms of cheap as chips tourists, disgorged onto the narrow streets, spending ‘cents’ all year round. And that’s while their super polluting, diesel guzzling plague ships pump toxins into the beautiful azur Mallorcan sky. Can’t wait :(
