Smoking on the baclony

You can imagine the Chainsmokers "Setting Fires" as they light-up the audience.

Wouldn't that be considered, "One Toke Over The Line".

Yes, when that starts to happen, my eyes get "Misty" (Johnny Mathis version).

So did we ever find out if RCCL will allow Australians with a prescription to vape in their stateroom?   I sure wouldn't want a ship to come Back in Black like that poor Princess ship.

Haven't heard, so I guess we can consider that thread "Smoke From A Distant Fire" .

Not that I have read, and I highly doubt that they will.  If they did, then why could not permit people who have been prescribed medical marijuana not be allowed to bring that aboard and smoke in the designated smoking areas?

No reason vapers cannot adhere to the rules that pertain to other smokers.  There are smoking areas designated for both the smokers and vapers.  

 

No excuses for the cry babies.  😩👶

That would be a great song for the losers of Championship games.

 

Get your pencil going, the Super Bowl is on Sunday.

People who want the ban enforced should be prepared to call guest services to report violations.

Been down that road and it was a dead end.

Sorry to hear that. Perhaps snap a photo of the repeat violation and report again with photographic evidence as often as necessary

 I have heard those are illegal.  If not, imagine having the munchies with a buffet at your disposal!

If it ever does.  Lots of push back from the armed forces and security services on federal legalization.

This could be a problem for RCI as they try to reduce total food consumption and waste. Those gummies could bring down a food empire. Imagine legions of "gummy" eating zombies looking for munchies 24 hours a day, banging on the Windjammer doors and MDR outside of service hours.

 

Worse yet, an unknowing passenger has brought fresh "Twinkies" on board. (Zombieland) 😱

Pat, I'm so stealing that term. 

Me too!  I was recently listening to a podcast where a woman told a story about a family in the dining room, grandparents, parents, a couple of older children and a 3ish year old.  The woman said that the 3 year old was standing in the upholstered chair banging two butter knives together saying loudly "Does anybody want to fight me?" repeatedly.  Nobody else at the table paid him any attention or tried to make him behave.  Sounds funny, not having been there, but I bet it was a nightmare to have to listen to that when you are trying to have a nice conversation.

I know and fully understand the policy and agree 100% with it. So, I am asking for a friend of my wifes, is smoking on the balcony allowed on other cruise lines. This person apparently was told by someone that it was ok to smoke on the balcony. 

Yes, there are other cruise lines that allow smoking on the balcony. I was shocked when we sailed on our first Costa cruise in 2019 - aft wrap suite on a transatlantic. Spending sea days on the massive balcony with a book, a glass of wine, and a cigarette was heaven. They provided wind-proof ashtrays, but I always used a water bottle filled with tap water to prevent any issues.

Sorry you had that experience. I've had nothing but positive support when I've called

They’re legal to buy and use if you have a medical card
