Non Smoking Casinos - Which Ships

Recommended Posts

Is there a list somewhere with what ships have Non Smoking Casinos or Annexes?  I am on the Magic currently and it's been wonderful to be able to still gamble and not have lung issues.  I have severe asthma and can't handle it.  

 

We are heading on the Vista at NYE and I was curious if they have one as well. 

 

Thanks so much!

The Magic has a casino annex on deck 4 that is totally smoke free. Has slots as well as table games.

Sorry, couldn’t help but laugh, the poster said she was currently on the Magic and really enjoyed the non smoking annex casino!

Appreciate ALL the replied.  Been an awesome week.  I tried the reg casino and I got so ill I puled for hours from the smoke.  Since I found the smoke free, no issues.  Sucks for me!

 Hoping one day soon they will all be smoke free!

Thanks everyone!  In the past, it wasn't that awful of an issue.  This time I will spare the details but I was physically ill in a bad way.  Then I lost my voice and had asthma daily, even if I sat in the non smoking area side.  Apparently I have become more sensitive to it.  

 

The annex was a huge plus for us!  We enjoy the casino and could still hang in there without issues and win a few bucks.  I will keep this list for future planning tho I am already booked on the Vista next.

The Celebration has two separate areas.  One is smoking and one is not. 

I will be going on the Jubilee so I am curious- is the non-smoking section really non-smoking? Do they actually enforce it? Also, is the smoke truly less noticeable? We tolerate the smoke but I would really appreciate not having clothes that stunk so bad from being in the casino. Especially with no self service laundry available.

you will not smell anything in the non-smoking area, and the smokers were always in their designated sections

I can tell from personal experience that the smoke free casino on the Celebration is truly smoke free!  You cannot smell the smoking area at all.

I believe it was separate.  I don't think my clothes were stinky at all.

It's separated by the casino bar on the Excel class. There's a doorway to cut through from the Atrium/Theater that opens into it and you remember why you're so thankful the rest of the casino is smoke free.

 

Yes they enforce it, seen multiple people try to light up on the slots and they were dealt with quickly by staff.

We usually sail on the Dream or Breeze out of Galveston.  Both have a smoke-free casino annex on deck 4.  Although it is a smaller casino with a smaller selection of slots and table games, it is totally smoke-free and definitely appeals to us.  It was also nice b/c there was no lack of service or attention from the servers or the casino host.  However, if you gamble there, you will miss the nightly contests that are part of the main casino - but, for us, it is worth it.    I believe the Magic also has a smoke-free annex b/c it is in the Dream class, but we have never sailed on that ship.  In January, we were on the Panorama, and it was one of the smokiest casinos we have ever experienced.  Even walking through it to get to other parts of the ship wasn't enjoyable.  There was no separate, dedicated smoke-free annex so I believe we only gambled once for a very short time during our 7-day cruise.  It was nice enjoying other activities that don't take up our time (and money)!  HaHa.

Counting down to being on the Dream soon, so looking forward to spending some time in the annex again.

Happy cruising everyone!
