MooNGaTe27 Posted May 25, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Hi. we are planing a group cruise on the Sunshine for Nov 2019 but we have a smoker in the group & he needs help picking a cabin. I told him you can no longer smoke on the balcony anymore so what is the best cabin where he can run out & grab a quick smoke If you get an ocean view cabin on deck 3 ( lobby) can you run out side & smoke? Where do you go??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jordanaire Posted May 25, 2018 #3 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Smoking area on the Sunshine is one deck above the Lido Deck on right side of ship. No cabins located near this area.

Where do you go??? Get a cabin on deck 4 port side. One floor up (casino) or down (deck 3) and they are at a smoking area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cushing985 Posted May 25, 2018 #5 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Get a cabin on deck 4 port side. One floor up (casino) or down (deck 3) and they are at a smoking area. I double-checked the deck plans and no cabins on Deck 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heidiatmn Posted May 25, 2018 #7 Share Posted May 25, 2018 As a former smoker I know and understand how important this can be to some. I would recommend staying within 1 floor of a smoking area. So if wanting a oceanview, either 2 or 3 would work. Deck 3 is going to be a quieter- watch the waves and sneak your smoke and move on type of area. If you don't mind an interior or can splurge for a balcony, I'd go deck 9 or 10 .....walk outside and up a flight. Also great location for food/pool/lido entertainment.

Rare MistyRo76 Posted May 25, 2018 #8 Share Posted May 25, 2018 If a balcony is of interest, try Lido deck cabins. My hubby is a pipe and cigar smoker and it was pretty convenient for him to get to the smoking area above the Lido deck from our cabin. Plus it's in close proximity to the bars and pools, so I could grab a drink or lay out while he was smoking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always find out where the smoking areas are (as riff just gave) - then we book a cabin near the elevator close to the smoking area. It's a quick shot that way.

Nevada Jen Posted May 25, 2018 #10 Share Posted May 25, 2018 If you are thinking a deck above or below a smoking deck, below is better. That way you don't have to walk up the steps after you smoke ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jgatts0212 Posted May 25, 2018 #12 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Look for cabin 3132, or around there. It is just in from the lobby, and you can walk right past the excursions desk and go outside. That was our cabin last October, and I am a horrible, terrible smoker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vamartha Posted May 25, 2018 #14 Share Posted May 25, 2018 We stayed on Lido. Up the stairs and out on the starboard side, past the open area above the pool. Not the best smoking section, extremely windy, right up against the intake for the Whale's Tale. And don't watch the red embers roll down the deck after dark - will scare the heck out of you and you'll realize how damn dangerous their choice of our smoking areas really are!

Computer Nerd Posted May 27, 2018 #20 Share Posted May 27, 2018 What do you do with your butts? What someone should do is either carry a mini self contained ashtray or if they forget that, use one of the cups in the room with a little water in it. Then either throw it in the trash or flush down the toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums If you want to claim you can smell the smoke from your balcony and it will ruin your entire cruise, fine. I can live with that. But this claim of putting the whole ship at risk from fire is nonsense. Much greater risk of a fire in the galley or engine room than the possibility of a cigarette starting a fire.

Most people don’t care Sent from my iPhone using Forums WRONG! Most people DO care! It is a fire hazard and people in surrounding balconies do NOT want your second hand smoke! There are designated smoking areas for a reason. Why second hand smoke is a nuisance and potential health hazard, it can be disastrous to someone with a chronic respiratory condition.
