horsesandcruises

We are on the Noordam right before you. I believe the new smoking regs take place for cruises that begin after Jan 15 (we leave on the 13th) so nobody knows.

For us we don't anticipate any noticable difference in the smoking policy because for us the only time we are bothered is on the veranda. Smoking is still permitted on cabin balconies.

 

Every cruise is different, some have more smokers than others, smoke in the casino is a possibility. If this will bother you then perhaps you should reconsider this cruise since you know you like Celebrity. There is nothing else you can do and no one can predict how smokey your cruise will be.

just got off of the phone with my ta and she when i asked her about switiching from celebrity( four cruises in a row) to thenoordam next year, she advised me to stay with celebrity. The two main reasons were: she knew how much we hate cig smoke and the other was the non-existence of any night life on the noordam. We like to party a bit and she knows us like a book and i was very thankful for her candid comments. going to book the 14 day eclipse.....Hope everything works out.
