mlzangel78 Posted October 9, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Has anyone still dealt with people still smoking on balconys recently ?

Clarea Posted October 9, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Call Security, they handle the problem quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dplusd Posted October 9, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I've not noticed a smoker on the balcony since the ban went into effect. I have seen numerous reports here of others finding and reporting balcony smokers. As a smoker, I really miss a late night smoke on my balcony but have never broken the rules. I just head to the casino which I enjoy anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyitsmema Posted October 9, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 9, 2017 We had a large group down the hall from us on Allure, that had a bunch of balcony dividers open, who partied and smoked on their balconies a lot. Security was frequently in the corridor, so someone was complaining about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessPete Posted October 9, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 9, 2017 On our Rhapsody cruise last week 3 people were smoking on a balcony one deck below us on day two. After a quick visit to Guest Services I gather they were were warned disembarkation could result with a further offence - never saw them on the balcony again.

Milwaukee Eight Posted October 9, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Haven’t had an issue with smokers on balconies since we moved to GS. Had issues with smokers on lower level balconies. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums People in GS smoke on their balconies too, it isn't just the "lower level balconies".:rolleyes: The large group smoking near us had at least one GS, not sure if they had the GS beside it too, or if that was who was making the complaints.

EmeraldCoastCruisers Posted October 9, 2017 #9 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Yes and we’ve called to complain! Sorry, but I can’t stand the smell and hubby is allergic to the smoke! Also, it’s plain wrong!!!!! Usually it seems to be someone below us so it always rises right into our balcony or in our cabin.

RoyalC Posted October 9, 2017 #10 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Disembarkation at first port would fix this problem. A placard or note in the cabin stating such would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenfrostine22 Posted October 9, 2017 #11 Share Posted October 9, 2017 On Oasis recently, cabin next to us was smoking pot on their balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptf2009 Posted October 9, 2017 #12 Share Posted October 9, 2017 We had this problem on Harmony last month. Not only did the people next door smoke but woke us up at 3:00a.m. yelling (I guess fighting) with their balcony door open. When I got up and opened our balcony door to see where the noise was coming from I smelled the smoke and the smell lingered in our cabin from me opening our door. YUK! I mentioned it to our cabin steward and she said that she told the people that smoking was prohibited because she smelled it in their room and they denied it. I wish I would have called security! This is the first cruise I noticed a lot of people on the pool deck at night smoking because the pool bar stayed open late. These people haven't realized what a disgusting, smelly habit smoking is!

hazmat1 Posted October 9, 2017 #16 Share Posted October 9, 2017 One a previous cruise I had to complain 3 tines about the people in the balcony next to us smoking weed on their balcony. So yes people still do it Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted October 9, 2017 #17 Share Posted October 9, 2017 To answer your questions, yes people still smoke on their balcony and yes people still complain. What happens as a result of complaining can be inconsistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRF Posted October 9, 2017 #18 Share Posted October 9, 2017 I noticed a lot of people on the pool deck at night smoking because the pool bar stayed open late. These people haven't realized what a disgusting, smelly habit smoking is! That's because that is probably one of the smoking areas. So they ARE following the rules.

Stewartgilbert76 Posted October 10, 2017 #19 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Dose anyone know the rules on vaping? There no naked flame. No smoke smell normally just a sweet scent. And it’s just water vapour that’s exhaled. Would anyone report this? I’m on a NCL cruise and wondered if I could vape on my balcony? I have no problem sticking to the rules if I’m not a loud.

Sent from my iPad using Forums Maybe you should ask on the NCL board? They would probably be more knowledgeable of NCL's rules than the people on the RCI board.

Sent from my iPad using Forums On Royal Caribbean, vaping falls under the same rules as smoking and is not allowed on balconies. You might want to check out the NCL forum for their rules.
