Six cruise ships in Palma — who still enforces the rules?

Answer

What are Palma’s cruise ship limits under the 2021 agreement?

The agreement sets a cap of no more than one mega-cruise ship and two smaller ships at any one time, with a daily limit of 2,500 cruise passengers. It’s a negotiated compromise and relies on voluntary coordination; it can be affected by when ships are registered and counted.
