JoeFan Posted August 27, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 27, 2019 On HOS now. My wife was going to read on the pool deck. We managed to find chairs on a sea day and some guy sits down next to my family and starts smoking pot. We bail on that situation and I send her back to the room to read on our balcony. When the couple next to us starts smoking Om their balcony. Which they have done several times a day. We can’t sit on our balcony without smelling smoke.

Clarea Posted August 27, 2019 #2 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Call security, they will handle the smoking. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMarc Posted August 27, 2019 #3 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I would call security and let them take care of it. You are not over reacting. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisegal40 Posted August 27, 2019 #4 Share Posted August 27, 2019 What Bob said. No reason to ruin your cruise for something they are not suppose to be doing anyway. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted August 27, 2019 #5 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) Not at all. Almost all smokers are considerate but unfortunately there are a few that are not. Regretfully you are and we’re stuck beside them. The same could be said about other things that people do, over and above smoking.

M&JfromSDL Posted August 27, 2019 #9 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I had to deal with balcony [chain] smokers on my last Allure of the Seas cruise. It was a awful. Sorry you have to deal with it on your vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Billy Bob Posted August 27, 2019 #10 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) I've called security to report balcony smokers. They got right after it and put a stop to it. It's a fire hazard for the crew, ship and passengers. Edited August 27, 2019 by Captain Billy Bob 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted August 27, 2019 #11 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Agree with all the above. But I think 'Vaping" is worse...I had no idea the smoke those things put out until we were standing out on deck the night we were getting ready to leave Aruba and some guy came up and stood "right next" to us...so inconsiderate !!!

WeLuvVacation Posted August 27, 2019 #12 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Smokers by and far are the absolute rudest people on the planet, not all of them just most of them. I'd call and take a picture of the offending smoke, not the people just the smoke. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONECRUISER Posted August 27, 2019 #13 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Agree, follow up as happens. Last time had issue with Balcony Smokers first time Smokers got warning. When called again they were caught and Fined by Royal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call security when they light up and have them come to your door so they can see it. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sunset Glow Posted August 27, 2019 #15 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Take a video and call again. If they do nothing insist on talking to the Head of Security, then the Hotel Director. If nothing comes out of that email the video to the CEO Michael Bayley. No way I'd stop until it stopped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony O Posted August 27, 2019 #16 Share Posted August 27, 2019 We had a similar issue once . We infored our cabin steward who entered their room to make it up and he smelled smoke. He called his boss and tbe problem was solved . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickeygirl78 Posted August 28, 2019 #18 Share Posted August 28, 2019 You are not overreacting. I’m very sensitive to smoke and would be furious. I’d keep calling. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maplemoose Posted August 28, 2019 #19 Share Posted August 28, 2019 What am I missing here? Nobody has mentioned the pot smoking. Are you all implying that pot smoking by the pool is allowed? If not, it should be much easier to stop that than on the balcony I would think. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milwaukee Eight Posted August 28, 2019 #21 Share Posted August 28, 2019 On Harmony April 2018, we had a guy vaping in the CK. I reported it and he was told to stop. Didn’t see it any other night. What’s with these people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was few yrs ago, right after Policy changed. only time had a connecting cabin. They'd go out and smoke while leaving Balcony door open, smoke would blow under the connecting door. Was really bad, just on Balcony wouldnt been such an issue. I could hear the conversation, heard what was said. Attendant confirmed what I heard...
