Skallywag Posted February 7, 2006 #1 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Am considering trying a different cruise - did Disney Magic Last year but are concerned that some cruises allow smoking in cabins. Can anyone help with the policy on Princess cruises please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjh Posted February 7, 2006 #2 Share Posted February 7, 2006 They do allow smoking in cabins but I have never smelled smoke in my cabins or walking down the hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fnewman Posted February 7, 2006 #3 Share Posted February 7, 2006 The biggest problem you are likely to have is when walking thought the designated somking areas (sides) of the deck or from smoke that may drift from someone else's balcony to yours.

Coolmama_1 Posted February 7, 2006 #4 Share Posted February 7, 2006 The only place where the smoke smell seems to be bad is in the casino! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Druke I Posted February 7, 2006 #5 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Reformed smoker here, and agree with CoolMama - smoke in Casino can be overpowering at times. Good thing I am not addicted to gambling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongerob Posted February 7, 2006 #6 Share Posted February 7, 2006 My wife is quite sensitive to the smell of smoke. Never once has she had a complaint about a cabin on a Princess ship. Hotel rooms - sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam in CA Posted February 7, 2006 #7 Share Posted February 7, 2006 I'm very sensitive to smoke and as others have said, the only times I've been bothered by it on a cruise ship is near (or in) the Casino. Also, outside Churchills on the Coral Princess, which is a cigar bar. You can smoke in your cabin and balcony but other than that, smoking is allowed only in designated areas. The air exchange system on a ship is pretty darned good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzlover Posted February 7, 2006 #8 Share Posted February 7, 2006 Does anyone know if they monitor the smoking areas on deck? I hate relaxing by the pool only to have to move because someone beside me lights up. Which side of the ship is usually designated smoke free? We're on the Dawn Apr 9 to the Mexican Rivieria. Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin' Chick Posted February 7, 2006 #9 Share Posted February 7, 2006 We found that we could often find a cloud of smoke in the Island Princess' atrium. Unfortunately, the cigar bar (Churchills) is located there as well as an open bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamLouisa Posted February 7, 2006 #10 Share Posted February 7, 2006 The starboard side usually is non-smoking side. Staff will NOT monitor or enforce the rule. When I was on Golden last year, we stayed at the non-smoking side by the pool. No smoking signs were clearly posted. A guy with heavy chains around his neck lit up a CIGAR in front of us. The area was semi-enclosed so the cigar fume was confined. Some nearby passengers started walking away. I told the pool attendants. They said OK but walked to the other direction. I finally told the man this was a non-smoking section. He jumped up and yelled at me in front of his 2 children. He might have had too many drinks. We soon just left the area.
