Smoking……

Not been on a cruise since 2012 so I know a lot has changed.
Is there any cruise lines that allow you to still smoke on your balcony?
Any cruise lines that allow smoking in allowed areas?
Any that DO NOT allow smoking anywhere?

Anymore tips needed since it’s been 10 yrs since I cruised.
Thank you!

I know celebrity and rccl don’t allow smoking on balcony, celebrity doesn’t allow smoking except for a couple of outside areas . Most except celebrity allow smoking in casino and other areas , none that I am aware of allow smoking in dinning rooms.

Princess, Carnival, HAL no smoking on the Balconies. On Princess there is a section of the Casino which is smoking, and a few areas outside which are smoking.

HAL has smoking in the casino and a designated outer area. Not sure of any others but definitely not entertainment venues, dining areas, cabins nor balconies.

A cruise ship had a fire on a balcony and this further tightened the restrictions. Most ships have designated smoking areas on the ship. As many have said, most casinos are still smoking, but the larger ships are adding a non-smoking section. I'm not aware of any ship that forbids smoking. The Carnival Paradise did this for a certain period in the past and it was not popular enough to continue. As an FYI vaping is also often considered smoking as well.

Best cruise line for smokers is MSC, they have about 6 areas, and nice areas! There's even ships with a bar! so you can sit and really enjoy a ciggie and drink, where your not treated like lepers. so might be worth considering.

Viking has a designated smoking area on a deck near the stern- and that’s it. And, yes, as in most cases these days, this includes vaping.
