Stop Dublin Port from turning away cruise ships from 2021 and turning away international cruise companies who want to call Dublin a home port.

how is going to survive the tourism in ireland? If you stop the cruisers, it will means less tourists and less money.... It is a useless decision and everyone is going to regret it.

Tourism has been growing steadily over the last few years ,thanks to the increase in Cruise Ships visiting Ireland ,it would be insane to stop this .

It seems inconceivable that this situation is actually happening!! Have we been given an answer as to why this decision has been made. Where are the Ministers for the various departments concerned and what are their thoughts on the subject. It is only right that they should step up to the mark here and get all the stakeholders involved together and give them some clear coherent answers now and with no procrastination!!!

This will be a serious loss and will most likely effect Belfast as well. With Government support I’m sure this service can be retained.

This Decision in my opinion will have a Devastating effect on Ireland as a Tourism Destination via Cruise Calls. I have Tour Guiding for over 50years so i know the Business inside and out. Why did Dublin Port Not seek Funding before now. Dublin May Shut down now as a lot of Jobs will go as will the Entire Services Industry in Ireland. Please do Not Do This and Seek Funding First as your first step. This is as Bad as a Tsunami to the Cruise Calls and there will be Consequences for all.

Tourism is a wonderful industry and it's been blossoming every year! Limiting cruise ships is anti progress!

This is a short sighted decision. It does not give any consideration to the impact on the economy.

This decision by Dublin Port makes no sense whatsoever. It will be very damaging to Irish tourism and will prevent thousands of visitors from visiting Ireland.
