MuttMutt Posted March 3, 2022 Report Share Posted March 3, 2022 I am sure there are a few smokers on here but in the US only around 14% of people smoke. I have seen many posts with people who have suggested RCCL ban smoking in the casino's as they did for a few weeks when the Omicron variant was very high and has since been rolled back. The CDC (yeah, I know they have been derps on the COVID stuff) has the information that I am using and they show that the majority of people who smoke are probably also the people who can't afford to go on a cruise as well. So lets figure less than 10% of people on a ship smoke right? Yet they are willing to allow that 10% to effectively stop people who do not smoke from wanting to even be near the casino. So I have started a petition directed to a bunch of the cruise lines to ban smoking on US sailings. Please sign it and share it to as many people as possible.

YNOT Posted March 28, 2022 Report Share Posted March 28, 2022 Good luck with that. Cruise lines know where the money comes from in the casinos. Discrimination is not a good thing. Carlos A. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has to be the most asinine statement I've seen in a long time. Now, for reference, I don't smoke, however, my wife enjoys an e-cigarette .... and, don't forget those that enjoy a good cigar (not cheap). But to assume that smokers are poor, and can't afford to cruise, is pure BS. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
