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

Government Ministers and Failte Ireland cannot allow this loss of Tourism revenue and loss of jobs to happen. Some commercial ships should use Foynes or Rosslare ports to leave space for the valued and welcome Visitors to Dublin and Ireland.

This decision flies in the face of Ireland remaining a major tourist destination for the top spending client of the tourism industry . It is a major retrograde step with both certain and uncertain negative consequences for Ireland's economy and employment

Port has no concern for the lost revenue to the Irish economy.

I am really disappointed with the decision and I want to see all the ship's dock in the Liffey change this silly decision. Or they'll use Dun laoghaire

An appalling, senseless decision. Commercial traffic could be diverted to other ports, leaving space for cruise ships, and increased tourism. Hopefully Failte Ireland, government , will block this.

Hopefully they will come to their senses and reverse this decision.

Dublin Port should not be allowed turn away cruises. Cruises are very welcome in Cork/Cobh

I don’t see why it should effect Cork
