Pompein Posted August 25, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Thinking about booking one of these for an Alaskan cruise. Will the smell of smoke be wafting down from above? Would it be any better in an aft cabin? Can't decide between and aft or one of these with the wider balcony. Any one have any experience with this?

CruiserBruce Posted August 25, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Smoking is not allowed on balconies any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blizzardboy Posted August 25, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I'm not sure if you're talking from the stacks or from the Lido deck smoking area. In either case you shouldn't have a problem. We've been in the corner suites on decks 5 and 7 repeatedly and never had an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pompein Posted August 25, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I was asking about smoke from the designated smoking area, I believe it's on the port side. Hopefully nobody will be smoking on their balconies anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No cabin on the port side will be affected by smoke unless one of your neighbours violates the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruiserBruce Posted August 25, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 25, 2017 That would be a pretty impressive feat for the smoke from deck 9 aft, making it down and slightly forward to get to your balcony cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only on Cruise Crtic do these things happen ... ;) I hear, however, that perfume also moves in strange ways ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisePack842 Posted September 5, 2017 #9 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Just off a cruise. The ONLY smoking area remaining is the Sea View bar, at the stern. Impossible to sell smoke originating from that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
