cruiser2053 Posted October 6, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Ok I don't want to start a debate on whether smoking on Balconies should or should not be allowed. I'm just wondering if anybody can tell what lines if any still allow you to smoke on your Balcony? Thanks in advance for any info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul929207 Posted October 6, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 6, 2014 if you hurry, Carnival will be banning smoking on the balconies on Wednesday, so you have a day or two to smoke there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammen Posted October 7, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Smoke in the back of the ship, it's like a balcony. This way you won't bother the ones above you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kadey Posted October 7, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 7, 2014 We just got off of NCL Breakaway and there was a lot of smoking on the balconies that is permissible by NCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monalis Posted October 7, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 7, 2014 We just got off of NCL Breakaway and there was a lot of smoking on the balconies that is permissible by NCL. It is right now, but this will be changing Nov 1, 2014. After Nov 1st no more smoking on balconies will be permitted on NCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted October 7, 2014 #9 Share Posted October 7, 2014 HAL is the only mass market at this point ... but, that will probably change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser2053 Posted October 7, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Thanks for all the replies. We always book aft balconies so our daily cigar smoke doesn't bother anybody and if a neighbor is out we always ask if it bothers them if we smoke. Nobody has ever said it bothered them. I am surprised the cruise lines don't set aside some cabins let just say the aft 3rd starboard side balconies for smokers. that would sure seem to me to be a way to keep all the smokers in one area and keep everybody happy. Anyway just my 10 cents worth Happy cruising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read a lot of threads regarding smoking (former smoker myself) and I have come to one undeniable conclusion- there is no way to keep everyone happy.

Anyway just my 10 cents worthHappy cruising RCI Voyager and Freedom class ships have the Connoisseur Lounge that is an indoor dedicated cigar lounge. No other indoor venue allows cigar smoking on any RCI ship and it is only permitted on the one side outdoors on the pool and promenade decks with cigarettes.
