@garyjarvis2730 15 дней назад

A lot of commenters think that the typical cruise passenger really enhances the local economy. In some places maybe this is true but for larger cities with their own vibrant economies the tourist trade produces empty dollars and causes more problems than it is worth. With the advent of the mega ships - geared towards corporate profits only - the problem has grown out of proportion in many places. Venice, Key West, Bar Harbor, Barcelona, Amsterdam, etc. do not want to be reality theme parks. The people who live there aren't paid cast characters in a Disney attraction. When the budget lines pull in and unload the dirty sneaker crowd with screaming kids it all seems to be a losing proposition.

@allytrudie864 15 дней назад

BINGO! Land tourists spent WAY more money. No one cares about the ships- they don’t even stay in hotels overnight. Tourists that pay are wanted over cruise ships that come in for a day and leave. Cruisers are not the smartest people and they think everyone travels their plebby way when most of us avoid it like the plague.

@lindab5789 15 дней назад

Some of the complaints that the Barcelona residents have about tourism may have some merit. However, a lot of the particpants just seem to be the usual 'disrupters'. Regardless, they need to take up their dissatisfaction with their local officials. Intimidating and spraying tourists is not acceptable. I live in a very popular tourist area in tht U.S., and I hope anyone who tooks these types if actions in my hometown would be arrested.

@dlgregory35 11 дней назад

How do you know many of the participants as you put it are disrupters whatever a disrupter is? You have no more idea than I have and this is the problem giving their opinions about something they know nothing about. It is not just Barcelona. many countries in Europe including France are fed up with the cruise ships taking over the towns and cities but in reality, contributing very little to their economies.

@frankbeazley1370 15 дней назад

Barcelona is under stress because of tourists. There is no fault on tourists or Barcelona. At issue is the volume of tourists has made it expensive for locals to find housing and pay for goods. Tourist both help economies of cities and towns but, make it harder for locals to afford to live there. Many places that would be apartments are now VRBO or Air BnB. As tourists we are in a position to pay higher prices for restaurants, gift shopping and entertainment. Locals not so much. The irony is that tourism is good for local economies, but their governements are not being pro-active in a way that works for both tourists and local folks. I have seen this first hand in Portugal and the government there does have measures in place that welcome tourism and protects the well being of their citizens.

I find it strange that the activist are putting energy into targeting the tourist. They need to be targeting the government and systems that allow cruise ships in the ports.

I would like to see how Barcelona will deal with having to rely on only the local's money.

@broccanmacronain457 15 дней назад

And it is not just cruisers that need to stop since they have no effect on housing which is one of the complaints. That is the tourists that stay in the Hotels and air BnBs since landlords find they can make more money from the tourists than renting or selling to locals. So for the locals to get back to what it was before, the travel companies should restrict people from going to those places that want the tourists to stay away. As much as my wife enjoyed Barcelona (we were there many years before when tourists were welcome) we will not be returning anytime soon.

Unfortunately. Barcelona (where one of the protests occurred) is one of the few remaining European cities where the airport is actually near the cruise port and city. Most US cruisers spend at least a day in a hotel both before and after their cruise or visit other European cities in addition to their cruise vacation. In many places, the cruise port is an hour or more away from the city. making transportation much more complex. And I agree--give them a year or so without tourist dollars.

Think about it, The QE2 back in its day held 2200 people and that was the biggest ship back then. All the other ships were smaller and less. Now you have shipped that whole 7,000 people do the math. When I was in Cozumel in April there was seven ships in there was an easy 20,000 to 30,000 people add added to the local community and you wonder why things are full.

The problem with the Progresso port is the distance from the peer to the mainland. All there is to do close to the ship is hangout in the souvenir shops.

A. This was years ago. A lady’s dog pooped in the hot tub. They kicked her off the ship. Her plane ticket home cost $1000.

A. Can't understand why it is a destination stop for cruise ships

@CyclingM1867 10 дней назад

I don't live in a cruise town, but I do live in a tourist town. For the most part they're welcome because they tend to be pretty decent and respectful. But I can understand why some places don't want tourists or are tired of them, especially if the people their tend to be rowdy or disrespectful of the local population.
