Smoking

Which cruise lines allow smoking on the cabin or suite balconies ?

I don't believe there are any that do anymore, at least not that I am aware of. HAL I think was one of the last to permit it but I believe they have stopped allowing that now as well.

Most will have designated smoking areas on certain sides of the pool and perhaps promenade decks, and some will permit it inside the casinos, but that typically is it.

Thanks

Yes, HAL has stopped smoking on the balconies/verandahs.

But there are a couple of designated areas where you can smoke -- like the aft pool area by the bar.

Per the link posted previously by Bob, no - they don't. (Just checked :))

I was floored recently when the Safety and Orientation channel on the TV (playing when we got to cabin) discussed Holland America Line smoking policy and said that eCigs (ie. "vaping") were OK in the cabin. I did a big double take at that policy but then thought perhaps they are residue free enough to not present a cleaning issue. Might be a bit of a safety net for some smokers.

No problem with e cigs. I think they should be free to anyone trying to quite smoking.

The areas for smoking are getting smaller. If you smoke look at the lines that allow smoking in the casino plus the adjacent bar.

Princess allows e-cigs in cabins but not on balconies.

On Celebrity, Azamara and Royal Caribbean e-cigs are not allowed in staterooms, on balconies or anywhere inside the ships.

As it should be.

I rarely click links provided here and cerrtainly would not cllick a link ab out smoking While OP is researching smoking on cruise ships, my memention of Seabourn was to suggest they look into whether Seabourn is an option

I was very disappointed to discover on our March cruise on the Koningsdam that smoking was allowed in the casino by active players at any time. So basically there are no smoke free hours.

The link that Bob provided really should provide all of the answers you seek.

It is a legitimate link so no worries.

They were one of the last to eliminate it.

They should make smokers go someplace deep in the bowels of the ship where others don't have to be subjected to their 2nd hand toxins.

A door into the exhaust stack that opens to a "lounge" area inside. That way their smoke would be swept away by the smoke from the ship's engines, and non-smokers would not have anything to complain about because it would be completely out of the way. ;p

I suspect there would be a line of non-smokers complaining that they can't enjoy the bowels of the ship due to the heavy smoke smell.

After the recent UK tv programme about exhaust pollution from cruise liners, smoking is the last thing to worry about on a cruise. If you are in an aft cabin, be very afraid!
