Peter Psaltis says he’s keen to get cruising after promising statements from the Premier yesterday. 

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk yesterday flagged the possibility of allowing small, state-based holidays up and down the coast for fully-vaccinated Queenslanders.

She says the proposal is still a few months off, but the state government will work with the industry on a plan to be taken to National Cabinet.

“I think this is a great idea!” Peter said.

“The $177 million Brisbane international cruise terminal has sat empty since its opening in October 2020, as COVID-19 decimated the sector.

“I’ve spoken to people from the cruise industry and they say they are ready to go in a restricted capacity.”
