Pooch Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 I thought it was starboard? We are on Majesty in a portside suite. Did I screw up? HATE the smell of cigarette smoke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovetocruise2002 Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 I've always thought that smoking was starboard with the exception of OA class which has it port side. However, when we were on Mariner last week, smoking was on the port side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I probably should have worded that better. What I meant was not that it was on both sides. It was on the port side instead of starboard. But I was under the impression that it should have been starboard since it was not OA class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooch Posted August 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Dang, one more thing to obsess about. mom2mybugs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monctonguy Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Not sure how you will smell that in your suite?....is your suite above the pool deck..nope...is your suite above deck 5 by the MDR..nope. So the good news is, it wont be an issue. Now all that smoke and chemicals blowing from the smokestacks you might want to be more worried about......

Pooch Posted August 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Just trying to get an idea as I cannot stand the smell of cigarettes (reformed smoker, we are the worst!). I am a novice here and unaware of exactly where one might be allowed to smoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twangster Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 What deck is your cabin on? If you are in a suite that sort of implies deck 10 on Majesty which should have no issues with smoke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooch Posted August 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Yup Deck 10 room 1532. Thank you Twangster! Oh and I love your reviews!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monctonguy Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 2 small areas on the whole ship...one side of the pool deck(and not the whole side) and just outside the MDR on one side on one deck...that's it. The rest is smoke free..... Oh....maybe the casino as I think the only smoke free casino is on Empress. So as long as you don't care to gamble...you should be able to go the whole cruise without probably smelling a whiff of it.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBRSKI Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 What's funny is that I always seem to pick the side they are smoking on and say to myself why? lol Look for the ash trays or the smell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnUK Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 When booking a cruise, I now make a point of checking previous Cruise Compasses (posted on this site) for the ship in question. There is always a reference to smoking areas featured, which then guides my selection of cabin as to where the risk of smoke contamination is lowest. Usually, no changes in smoking location occur on a given ship, although it could happen..... Incidentally, on Freedom and Voyager class ships there is a spiral staircase in the middle of the Promenade that leads down to the Casino. Smoke from the Casino is often noticeable on the Promenade around that area. Not much can be done about it so this is just a matter of information. Similarly, smoke can often be noticed near to the Casino entrances in the Schooner bar and Boleros (or equivalent). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pooch Posted August 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 What a great idea! I just checked a Majesty Cruise Compass & the smoking areas are indeed on the starboard side away from me!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
