Many of the business owners are in favor of curbing the number of passengers on shore.Hello, do you know how much we paid for excursions on our Alaska cruise? It cost almost as much as the cruise itself. People in Alaska are making big bucks off of cruise tourists - helicopter tours, boat tours, plane tours, etc. There is no way those businesses want to lose business - it's too good a racket. I'm still in shock I paid $600/pp for my family to take a helicopter ride.
The owners will do fine on half that.
Many are concerned that with as many as are coming the experience is at risk. There are only so many helicopter landings that can be done on the glacier per day, highly limited capacity per copter, a limited number of sled puppies that can truly be supported for space and care, etc.
