With more and more countries prohibiting smoking in public places, restaurants, clubs etc, what's the status of smoking in Switzerland?

Tessin: no smoking

All other cantons: smoking is still allowed.

Hi 123Go,

No smoking is allowed on the trains.

If you want detailed info, wikipedia "smoking laws." You will get all bans/laws/restrictions and propsals broken out by country along with dates that they are planned to go into effect.

Thanks for the updates. I'll look at wikipedia for more info. I was crossing my fingers that it would be banned everywhere

cherrybomb

Ha! I read up on it for the opposite!

Oops, sorry cherrybomb. It's kind of ruins a trip when your highly allergic to cig smoke.

It's most definitely not "banned everywhere"

When we were there in August, it seemed that smoking was almost required. Very smoky in many places. I'm sure it varies from place to place, though, and laws change all the time.

GDamn I wish I could quit this addiction. My next attempt will be with Rhodiola, an herbal that attempts to stimulate the dopamine. Maybe maybe

Switzerland is our modern days little Gaulish village which still resists Brusselcrats' occupation ;-)

I believe Geneva and Solothurn are next on the list of smoke-free cantons. The others will follow in due time.
