    We should have the technology to reinforce the supports and raise Venice, but it would be really really expensive. Maybe the fee is also there to pay for those efforts as well.

      I read yesterday that they haven’t implemented the fee because of complaining, but I haven’t been able to find a source on it. I have no idea if they’re limiting the cruise ships.

        Obviously people will complain, but they’ll pay it anyways. If too many people are making Venice sink then they should be willing to pay a small fee to make it unsink, otherwise they can go somewhere else. But nobody is going to cancel their trip to Venice for €10.
