Answer

Is it safe for Palma to receive several mega cruise ships at the same time?

Multiple mega-ships in the port at once create extra pressure on space, access roads, emergency planning, and rescue coordination. Larger ships need different evacuation concepts and more careful management than smaller vessels. That is why port authorities and city services need clear planning before several giant ships arrive together.
