doghog Posted February 9 #1601 Share Posted February 9 According to the deck plan for the Enchanted looks like the walking/jogging track is in a great location on deck 19. I won't be effected by the smoke and smell on the walking/jogging track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back to a separate jogging track like we used to have in the past 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems like an odd choice on Princess’ part. I agree ... if I were a jogger and not a smoker, I'd pitch a fit about this. People should not have to be around smokers if they don't want to, that's just nuts. But I found a lot about Princess that's just nuts.

mtfasls Posted February 29 #1606 Share Posted February 29 Now that the Sun has launched, where are the smoking areas on this ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torfamm Posted March 3 #1607 Share Posted March 3 We are currently on the Enchanted Princess and the smoking policy in the casino isn’t being enforced at all. There are people ignoring the policy that only those who are actively playing at slot machines labeled as being in the smoking area can smoke every day. It’s absolutely miserable to even walk in the door in the evenings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would be confrontations and complaints against the crew member. I have seen people sitting at a machine smoking and not playing and maybe playing every 5 minutes or so at minimum bet. Sometimes they won’t play till they see a manager walking up. The drink severs are not going to do anything 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, afraid of confrontation. May be if we were gamblers we would complain to the casino staff or the HD. Maybe nonsmoking gamblers should push the issue with the casino staff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t seen any Princess casino this bad, at least not since the restart. I can’t really remember how bad it was in the past. It’s such a shame that Princess decided to make the casino a smoking area again. The smoke-free cruises were so much better. Smoke literally poured out the casino doors into the piazza on the first night 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare richstowe Posted March 13 #1622 Share Posted March 13 We were on the Sky last week. Great cruise except for the smoking in the casino. It was a special cruise perk for heavy gamblers, supposedly 450 of them. Who would have guessed that heavy gamblers are also heavy smokers (and drinkers and eaters)? First time in many cruises that I didn't gamble at all. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrrom92 Posted March 16 #1624 Share Posted March 16 Perhaps a stupid question, but do they provide a lighter in the cigar lounge of any sort? Or at least matchbooks you can pick up there, or at the various bars? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
