Thanks so much for your reply Butterspoon, that's extremely helpful! Great to hear first hand experience from someone who has travelled recently. My main concern was the smoking areas were a bit isolated or out of the way, but that doesn't sound like the case. I cruise solo so really appreciated the chance to chat to others while sitting having a drink and a smoke in the evenings on the Explorer. Thanks again, you've put my mind at rest now 😊

Hi I've just returned from a week on the Explorer and loved the cruise life so much (first timer) that I've booked another trip with Marella next year, only it's on the Discovery 2 next time. Can any smokers/vapers advise where the smoking areas are please and what they are like? What I mean by that is, on the Explorer the smoking areas were the aft deck behind the pub, and on the deck above the pool, both with drinks service. From a short video I saw on YouTube it looks like the smoking areas on D2 are kind of 'nothing' areas, out of the way. Grateful for any info, thanks 😊
