Sunshine - Smoking Cigars

[dcs1989]

Hello All,

 

I am not a smoker and do know I cannot smoke in the cabin/balcony and only in certain areas on the ship.

 

I am taking my dad on his first cruise in January on the Carnival Sunshine and he enjoys a good cigar when on vacation. Is there any where on the ship Cigars are permitted and is it a pleasant area? If there is an area - is it an open area with a view of the water or is it like one of those disgusting foggy smoke rooms some airports still have?

 

 

Thanks!

I will also add that Deck 10 area was VERY smoky at all times of the day - and it wafted up to where we were walking on the track. It would be nice if they moved that section to a better less popular location as the kids are all headed that way to get to sportssquare.

That is interesting. When did they stop allowing smoking on the lido deck?

 

Edit... I'm guessing it was with the changes October 2014?

Is deck 3 on port side. I love this deck!! There is hardly ever anyone out there, and its a great spot to watch the ocean in peace and quiet. I end up becoming acquainted with other smokers that I run into all the time there. I made sure I picked a cabin with very easy access to this area.. It is the long deck under the lifeboats with plenty of chairs to sit and relax...

The deck three outside area was very peaceful and scenic when we were on SunShine. We even brought our own ashtray.
