Cruise news today. After a record-breaking summer that saw 560,000 cruise passengers visit Sitka, Alaska, a local resident is leading an initiative to cap annual cruise visitors at 240,000. Inspired by a similar measure in Bar Harbor, Maine, the proposal also includes daily and weekly limits and would require cruise companies to secure permits. Brand ambassador John Heald confirmed that new ship builds will no longer include libraries.
