Smoking in Casino on Cruises leaving from UK

[M00se55]

Can anyone confirm if there is smoking in the casino on cruises leaving from the UK? According to RC website, cruises from here do not allow smoking inside. I do not want to start any debate between smokers and not smokers.. I just would like to know if smoking is allowed in the casino or not, on the Explorer of the Seas leaving Southampton.

TIA.

Nope there's no smoking in the Casino from cruises departing from the UK or Australia.

Reports have indicated that Royal does not allow smoking in the casino on cruises leaving from the UK or Australia.

No smoking on Indy 2 weeks ago, it was lovely to walk through and not have to hold my breath!

That is good to know for our cruise on Indy from Southampton next month.  However, on Grandeur at the end of April, they did have a smoking section in the Casino.  Due to the colder weather, many were taking advantage of this indoor space.

Doesn't Grandeur sail out of Baltimore?

Yes.  I believe that he was comparing how bad it is when they DO allow smoking in the casino.

We did a transatlantic cruise on Indy out of Southampton a few years ago and it was so nice that there was no smoking in the casino - but then on day 3 smoking was back😡 . Never went back the rest of the cruise.

Ha! Is this your first day on cc? We debate everything from silverware to pepper grinders. And smoking is #1 followed by tipping!
