Dining room options
 

I have a question about tables in dining rooms. We are a family of 5 scheduled on Voyager in March. Is smoking allowed in the dining rooms? Is there a non smoking area? I don't think I could actually even eat if someone was smoking at our table. Can you request a non smoking area? We were on Carnival Paradise during our last cruise and of course it being a non smoking ship I never even thought about it. Thanks in advance.

Most ships I've been on do not allow smoking in the dining room.

<BR>Hi Linda,<BR><BR>There is also no smoking in the main showroom. All lounges and on open decks have designated "smoking" areas. Note that you will indeed find passengers who cannot read.<BR><BR>Paul

Or even smoke that cannot read !!!!!!!!

Check the brochure or web site for your ship, but these days most ships are 100% non smoking in eating areas. Even the &quot;bar&quot; areas usually have large non smoking sections, and on deck the smoky and clean areas should be well signposted. Don't be shy about asking a crew member to speak to any other passenger who &quot;didn't notice&quot; the non smoking signs on deck or anywhere else.
On our summer cruise with P&amp;O last year the only time we ever smelt smoke it came from the balcony of the next door cabin which was occupied by one of the special guest speakers - a medical practitioner and minor TV celebrity who was booked to do several lectures on how to look after your heart!
