Cruise Initiatives Risk Future of Juneau Businesses

Cruise Initiatives Risk Future of Juneau Businesses submitted by Liz Perry Travel Juneau has one mission: market the community to conventions, groups, and independent travelers. While we’re charged with putting “heads in beds,” the fact is independent visitors benefit from the activities and infrastructure cruise guests enjoy. For this reason, Travel Juneau is duty-bound to advocate for our small-business partners, about 85% of which depend on cruise passengers booking with independent operators and shopping at locally-owned retailers.  Home-grown businesses will be harmed should Juneau CAN Rethink Tourism’s initiatives gain traction. Juneau CAN Rethink Tourism’s (JCAN) proposed initiatives claim to restore balance to Juneau’s visitor industry by imposing a curfew of ships carrying more than 250 passengers; no port calls on Saturdays, and the exclusion of ships over 100,000 gross tons beginning in 2026. These proposals are flawed and misinformed.
