AndWe

Thank you. That makes a lot of sense... I am waitlisted for traditional dining, so fingers crossed!

Is Anytime dining or Traditional Dining best?

Any other solo tips?

Thanks!

Does anyone know the current smoking areas on the Crown? I'm booked by the Terrace pool, so I'm hoping I smoke there! Thanks.

Good to know about the ashtray shortage. I have my own little cigarette disposal pouches...will bring.

Unfortunately, not so sure smoking is still allowed by the Terrace Pool on Crown Princess. :( Seems it may not be from what sister ships are reporting.

It's so hard getting CURRENT Information.

Do hope someone recently on Crown will reply.

I hope someone replies as well. If smoking by the Terrace Pool is not possible I am going to cancel this trip. I'm reading the reviews of this ship and they aren't good at all. And, if it's SO inconvenient to smoke OUTDOORS near my cabin.....well, that is a waste of my time and money.

There's a great smoking section a few steps above the Terrace pool, close to Adagio, with nice chairs and tables. It should be a 2 minute walk from your cabin.

Thanks. That's 2 floors above me. Not acceptable.

I sure hope so @Andwe...I just booked on the Crown also, and picked an aft cabin for the same reason (are you going 12/1? If so, don't cancel! We'll figure it out together:)

:D Glad you answered! I thought I'd get some snarky remarks about smoking! I'm booked on the 11/8 trip. Sure wish we were on the same trip!

Does anyone know if there is a smoking section on the 14th deck of the Crown Princess, specifically by the Terrace Pool? I got a room near there hoping that there is smoking so I can have my morning smoke! I purposely did not get a balcony room since smoking is prohibited and why waste the money. Please let me know if I made a good choice. I'm seriously thinking about cancelling this trip.
