They can smoke up by the pool, plenty of places to smoke. Inside smoking not good. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekathy Posted December 20, 2021 #4 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Hopefully this is a permanent and fleetwide change. Works for Celebrity. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare AtSeaWithChris Posted December 20, 2021 #6 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Since you are currently on Harmony, maybe you can answer my question. In the app there are several dining rooms. 2 start at 6PM and one starts at 8:30 PM and My Time Dining room starts at 7:15. We have My Time Dining. What time can we expect to eat? Do we have to wait until 7:15? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or if any were. Just speculation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovesthebeach2 Posted December 20, 2021 #10 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I hope this becomes permanent…then maybe I’ll visit the casino. I can’t believe they’ve allowed smoking inside a ship all this time. It’s my only complaint when I fill out the surveys. Last cruise the survey had a question about smoking, I don’t remember what it was, but I was surprised and thought that maybe they may be considering a change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HicksRA Posted December 20, 2021 #11 Share Posted December 20, 2021 That’ll free up a lot of machines that are just being occupied as a smoking booth. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare HappyTexan44 Posted September 30, 2022 #14 Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) So glad to hear this. It hadn't even occurred to me that smoking was allowed in casinos. It should have though, gambling and smoking seems to go together. I had thought I'd spend some time playing poker and I get sinus infections from being around smoke. ETA: Well, shoot, this is still in their FAQ. We are going on Voyager. Harmony was the other option and I was a bit on the fence. Where can I smoke on a Royal Caribbean cruise ship? A Indoor smoking is permitted in the Casino, the cigar clubs on Freedom and Voyager Class ships, and one designated smoking venue on ships sailing from Chinese homeports. Cigarette, cigar, e-cigarette and pipe smoking is permitted in designated outdoor areas. Edited September 30, 2022 by HappyTexan44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare RobInMN Posted September 30, 2022 #15 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Not sure how you found this short thread among all the other much longer ones, but this was a short lived COVID policy in response to one of the variants and a surge in cases. Unfortunately, they rescinded it after the cases subsided. This was "discussed" to death in the other threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare livingonthebeach Posted September 30, 2022 #16 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I think this is an old outdated thread. At the beginning of the restart they did ban smoking in casinos on some ships, however all the cruises I have taken lately have allowed smoking in the casino. I'm all for the ban and would spend more time in the casino if it were smoke free. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare HappyTexan44 Posted September 30, 2022 #19 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I apologize for bringing up the old thread. In my defense it had been fairly high in this area. I guess I just got so excited. I can only gamble in home games because of smoking. I just joined and I will be avoiding any Covid threads. Trip is early 2024. I love the trailing boat idea.
