The only smokey place in the ship is the Casino & cigar bar.

Dang Dan...I was going to tell you to be careful or you'd make "the list" but after going back and re-reading...you're already on it.

I try to be mellow and forgiving at all times. I try, I really do.

You smoke also Toni?

Ok, maybe its just the "newbie" status, but people seem very short on this board.

I have friends that would take that comment as an insult. Just because they are not over 5' tall they should not be called short...they are little people.

Please watch your wording ....someone might take it wrong......LOL;) ;) :p :p

For those that have posted and said the TA and Carnival will do nothing, have you ever tried or spoken to either about this situation? I think I will give my TA a call today just to see her opinion and maybe conference in Carnival.

 

Please tell us how your conference call goes/went. I'm not exactly sure what you expect since neither Carnival nor TA's even ask if you're a smoker or not, so they'll have no way of knowing what cabins have been recently smoked in or not. :confused:

I'm also very sensitive to smoke and react immediately when exposed. I've never had a problem with residual smoke in my stateroom upon boarding. However, I have (only a couple times) had the misfortune of being assigned a room next to a smoker and subjected to the smell during the cruise (room and balcony). I've cruised 25 times and this problem was the exception rather than the rule, but it can happen.

This happened to me. I would wake up whenever they lit a cigarette(I walked by once when their door was open- they were sitting right up against the wall where our bed was). They were pretty much chain smokers when they were in the room.

My sister had a problem with a room on HAL smelling like smoke. They changed curtains, pillows & all bedding in the room.

So what did your TA say? How did the conference work out??????

[jlewisinsyr]

UPDATE:

 

I spoke to my TA and she called Carnival while on the phone. Like those who posted, they could not guarantee that it would be a non-smoking room, but they were willing to note my record and put in a special request to ensure that extra care is given for smoke removal.

As a smoker I was quite interested to read all of the previous posts in this thread.....I also NEVER smoke in my cabin due to DH "hating" it but even as a smoker I find some areas of the ship to be smokier than others. I was surprised nobody brought up any other odors that might be found on the ship. Two cruises ago, I had friends on the Riviera deck and whenever I went down to visit their cabin the whole hallway had the aroma of smoke (of a different kind). Made for quite an interesting week!

[cruzndiz]

What I also wondered .....why did nobody point out the cruise ship Paradise?? Is it still in operation?? That was supposed to be 100% smoke free.

It is no longer smoke free.

On the Paradise's 4 day cruises the Casino is non smoking but the 3 days is smoking in the same areas as any other Carnival ship.

I have never had a problem.

I smell that smell atleast once on every cruise i have been on.

I have also seen Security find the smell and evict the tenants.

Wow!!! We must have had some very lax security that time b/c the only acknowledgement of the situation was the last night when an announcement came over the shipwide intercom telling ppl to make sure they didn't have anything left in their suitcases in the a.m. that might be detected by dogs when coming off the ship :eek:

One incident was on deck 8 midship Valor, we walked past on the way to dinner and spelled the "odor" coming from the cabin........Coming back from dinner, we passed the same cabin, a guy laying on the bed handcuffed and security rummaging thru the drawers.
