iluvit! Posted January 17, 2019 #1 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Any up to date info on the Cigar Lounge deck 5 on the Freedom? CC maps show that it’s still there. I know this feature is going away, but do any other ships still have them? Hubby likes his scotch & cigar after dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmhanel Posted January 17, 2019 #2 Share Posted January 17, 2019 It was still there when we were on Freedom in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigar King Posted January 17, 2019 #3 Share Posted January 17, 2019 AFAIK, it is still there. We have two B2B's on Freedom this year, and one of the reasons I wanted to do that ship was the lounge. That being said, I would expect the lounge to be removed during the next dry dock. (much like the did to Adventure) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Petroplex Posted January 17, 2019 #5 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I had no idea they were taking away the cigar bars. That is one of the extra cost features which I actually really like, and I used it quite a bit on the Navigator in 2015 and the Liberty in 2017. I am hoping it is still on the Liberty in July.

Liberty should be good until the next dry dock in 2021. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I love the CC and they are almost always packed after dinner & onward. They're replacing them with a non-revenue space, makes no sense to me.

The revenue space I actually liked is being replaced by a non-revenue space which I would normally prefer but in this case don't want. The only thing for it is to go have another cocktail at a different onboard bar until this all makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigar King Posted January 17, 2019 #9 Share Posted January 17, 2019 FWIW, we were on Adventure just after they turned the cigar lounge into a card room. It was almost empty most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joebucks Posted January 17, 2019 #10 Share Posted January 17, 2019 There has to be more to the decision. There seems to be a war against indoor cigars. There's absolutely nothing allowed in my city. It's sad really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvit! Posted January 18, 2019 Author #11 Share Posted January 18, 2019 Thanks, everyone. Agreed, the card room is a dreary little space, makes no sense to convert to these. Maybe it’s a way to cut staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AACJ Posted January 21, 2019 #12 Share Posted January 21, 2019 We were on Freedom a few years ago, cigarette smoking was allowed in the Connoisseur's Club. Reading the smoking policies (see link below) from Cruise Critic, it says it is not allowed in the Connoisseur's Club, but the RCCL site says nothing. What is correct from those who may have recently come off the Freedom? https://www.cruisecritic.com/articles.cfm?ID=225 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cigar King Posted January 22, 2019 #13 Share Posted January 22, 2019 You can smoke cigarettes in the cigar lounge and many do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
