[joemon39]

Has anybody been on the DAWN lately that has purchased cigarettes? Is there a savings and how much are they? Traveling on DAWN march 27th.

Major brand cigs on the Spirit last week, were $22 at the duty free shop. You can take them with you. On shore at some of our ports, there were a buck or two cheaper.

Are you able to smoke the cigarettes that you purchase on board right away or do you have to wait and claim them at the end of the cruise like liquor?

Smoke away - you can have them as soon as the stores open

[jmbc]

how many cartons can you purchase?

The will sell you all you want. Keep in mind it is up to you to report any amount over the limit you have remaining when you enter the states. If you are travelling with a large group everyone can bring one carton duty free.

If you smoke them, please respect those on the RIGHT SIDE OF THE SHIP, which is the non-smoking side.

 

Once in awhile (but i am glad to say rarely) you see smokers sitting at tables with the "no smoking" disk.

 

Did they not see it or not care? Did they cover the disk with their towels before they walked off the ship so they can save seats on the pool deck?

Also keep in mind that on some ships, those who buy over the prescribed customs amount are automatically reported to customs via sales reports from the ship. You may receive a call to report to a specific room to settle up with customs if you go "overboard" with your cigarette or liquor purchases on the ship. What you buy off the ship is unknown however.

Cliff,

Thanks for this information. I was not aware of this.

Do you know if this is true of the Dawn?

Yes it is - I recall TomCT positng about one member of his family being called to settle up. :eek:

I just read the post that the right side of the ship is the "non-smoking section." I did not know there was such a thing :eek: Is this standard on all ships?

 

I haven't seen anything about smoking or non-smoking cabins. Had I known there was a non-smoking side, I would have booked it. :(

I'm staying in Cabin 8510. Is the smoke really bad on the left side? :confused:

 

Thank you.

Yes, US Customs does have this capability with the Dawn.

All cabins are smoking optional - the left right rule is for bars, and deck areas.

This applies to any purchases on the ships. There is a "red flag" especially in the jewelry dept. for large sales:eek: ............so watch out guys on those secret gifts;)

[MARYANDPAT]

Thank you, shoreguy. I did not know about the left side/right side rule. I sure am learning a lot on these boards about cruising!

 

(Sorry about the double post.)

We were on the Dawn at 7/31/05 $23.00 a carton. I dont smoke but i have friends who do. Makes a great gift. Lung cancer. Sorry but when you loose both parents to it makes you wonder.
