Good news for tourism operators in Milford Sound, as the Government rejects plans to ban cruise ships 

More than $15 million has been invested into infrastructure and conservation upgrades in Milford Sound. 

Cruise ships will also be allowed back in the area, rejecting the 2021 master plan advising against their access to the sound. 

Cruise Association Chief Executive Jacqui Lloyd told Mike Hosking Milford Sound is an icon of a New Zealand itinerary by land or sea. 

She says the option to lose Milford cruises would've impacted the industry in New Zealand.
