Royal Princess Outdoor Smoking is where?

[jennybenny]

I'm trying to avoid outside smoke on a balcony. Where are the "outdoor smoking areas" on the Royal Princess?

Thank you in advance. My mother is very allergic and I don't want to be near it for our cruise.

Good Evening,

 

We were on the Regal, the twin to Royal, on 1/10-17. The primary smoking area is on Deck 17 aft around the Terrace pool. There is also a small exterior smoking area on the aft section of Promenade deck 7.

 

We had an aft cabin on deck 15 immediately below the smoking area on 17. On a few occasions, we did get a whiff of smoke blown down from above. Much more frequently, we would smell smoke in the rear stairs on the top few decks. This smoke was apparently blown in when exterior doors were opened.

 

We could also smell a small amount of smoke when walking through the atrium near the casino.

 

It was not a big deal to me and I do appreciate Princess trying to concentrate the smokers in one or two ghettos.

 

My wife tries to avoid smoke as if it was Ebola. If you are in a similar position, I suggest avoiding aft cabins, especially at higher deck levels. I would also avoid the rear stairs on the upper decks.

 

We have enjoyed both the Royal and Regal and recommend them greatly.

Same area but no aft pool on the Royal.
