coevan Posted May 28, 2018 #26 Share Posted May 28, 2018 I'm still trying to figure out why which cabin matters? Is the smoker disabled? Is the smoker that sick he can't walk a few decks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotede04 Posted May 28, 2018 #27 Share Posted May 28, 2018 I don’t understand why everyone has to get onto everyone who smokes. I’m a non smoker my hubby is a smoker. He doesn’t bother me with his smoke at all. We are going on our first cruise next year and it was soooo hard to convince him to go!!! This is such a bullying issue!! Ps. Hubby has been a lifelong smoker and hasn’t started one fire! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Computer Nerd Posted May 28, 2018 #29 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Star Princess for one. Grandeur of the Seas for another Sent from my iPad using Forums Reread Star Princess report. Fire was blamed on "possible" cigarette because they couldn't find another alternative. Not even close to be proven. Also no known ignition source for the Grandeur fire. So, I ask again, just which fires have been proven to be caused by a cigarette? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slacktide Posted May 28, 2018 #31 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Get a vape pen to curb the nicotine craving while in the cabin. It's against the rules to but next to impossible to get caught. It's not smoke, it's a vapor that dissipates quickly with very little to no smell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongHill44 Posted May 28, 2018 #32 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Get a top deck balcony cabin. No one will say a word and if they do, you will k ow who ratted you out and what to do. You know what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyZ Posted May 28, 2018 #33 Share Posted May 28, 2018 This is such a bullying issue!! Forums I agree that your husbands smoking is a bullying move upon the non smoking world. When I pick my nose, do I fling it in non nose pickers direction . No I do not. Smokers have no idea what it’s like for us non smokers and frankly they really don’t seem to care about our feelings . That’s the textbook definition of bullying . Thanks for pointing that out Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotede04 Posted May 28, 2018 #34 Share Posted May 28, 2018 You non smokers have to make sure you point out and down smokers. Yes bullying! I’ve never met a smoker who sits and downs a non smoker.

Hubby has been a lifelong smoker and hasn’t started one fire! Sent from my iPhone using Forums I'm glad it doesn't bother you. But I am grossed out by the smell, not of just the smoke when a cigarette but also the smell that permeates the smoker. I'm not being a bully by not wanting to be exposed to something that is known to cause cancer in people that don't even indulge in the disgusting habit. I'm not worried about fires, I think that's a ridiculous notion. I just don't want to be exposed to the secondhand smoke. I do think smokers should have their area to smoke away & I'll avoid them.

Blackjack22 Posted May 28, 2018 #38 Share Posted May 28, 2018 If you have a balcony and don't chain smoke, I think they expect people to smoke a few in their room as long as they don't take it overboard (no pun intended). My SIL always tips her cabin guy $100 the first time she sees him and has never had a problem smoking a bit in her room. Again don't go overboard, only smoke your morning cigarette, maybe a few while you get ready for dinner and one while your in bed trying to go to sleep and only do it with a balcony and the door open.

As someone who has never even smoked one cigarette, I totally agree that non-smokers are bullies to smokers. I really like second-hand smoke, it smells really good to me. I just have never smoked because I'm cheap and know that I have an addictive personality and I'd be smoking three packs per day if I tried them;) Sucks because I think women who smoke look so swanky and urbane, I've always envied the models who chain smoke.

This one is very hard to swallow. Smoking on a balcony is one thing, smoking in the cabin is not cool. I don't believe $100 would save the cabin stewards job. Smoking in a cabin, even one cigarette's smoke lasts days and is near impossible to completely eliminate. This is why Carnival and almost all hotels have a $250 cleaning fee, no it's not a fine.

Who cares about a measly $100 bucks. He can lose his job. What if he said to his boss, "hey, I want the hundred dollar bribe I made with him back" I cal BS on this one.

dotede04 Posted May 28, 2018 #42 Share Posted May 28, 2018 See once again. You smokers, the smell, cancer, fires. It’s their life you have yours they have theirs. They want to go on vacation too and still be able to enjoy life too. My husband is the sole provider in this house. Husband to our three small children. We are paying thousands of dollars for our right to go on vacation just like you. So he should have every right to go into our balcony that we are paying a premium for. Outside in the air and smoke and enjoy the scenery. There should be smoking and non smoking cabins just like there are in hotels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookDragon Posted May 28, 2018 #43 Share Posted May 28, 2018 What I don’t understand is why the mods allow for suggestions and/or posts that encourage breaking Carnival’s rules on CC? I belong to other cruising sites and these types of posts (smoking in unauthorized areas, smuggling alcohol, etc.) are deleted, the poster is warned and/or account is suspended and in some cases thread is locked or removed. Allowing these types of posts, without admonishing, encourages rule breaking imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stargate fan Posted May 28, 2018 #44 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Just smoke on the balcony. I’ve done it on every Carnival cruise without a complaint. Most people don’t care Sent from my iPhone using Forums Contrary to what people say, cigarette and cigar smoke do affect people in surrounding balconies. When we sailed Breeze back before smoking was prohibited on balconies, the family in the cabin just forward of ours smoked. And smoked. And smoked. The smoke wafted backwards to our balcony, making it unusable for the entire week. (Except during early assigned dining. That was the only time we could be on our balcony.) It did not matter if the ship was moving or if we were in port, we were always inundated with smoke. Kyndal93, kindly follow the rules and do not smoke on your balcony. Thank you.

Unlike a hotel balcony, cruise ship balconies are side by side so his smoke is going to other balconies. As I said earlier, this is bullying to the highest extent.
