CRUISE LINE UPDATES SMOKING POLICY FLEET-WIDE
Smoking
will no longer be permitted in guest staterooms
MIAMI –
August 09, 2011 - Norwegian Cruise Line
today announced adjustments to its smoking policy for each of the line’s 11
Freestyle Cruising ships in response to changing guest preferences. Effective
January 2012, guests setting sail on a Norwegian cruise vacation are no
longer permitted to smoke cigarettes in their staterooms. Guests who are in
a balcony stateroom will be permitted to smoke on the outside balcony; however,
cigar and pipe smoking in staterooms and on balconies is prohibited. Ashtrays
will be available for use upon request through housekeeping staff. In an effort
to diminish the presence of smoke indoors, cigarette smoking is only permitted
in the casino, where ashtrays and appropriate signage will be displayed. Smoking
is prohibited in all other public interior venues including all bars,
restaurants, conference rooms, corridors, restrooms, staircases and landings.
Guests may utilize the enclosed cigar bars on board Norwegian Epic, Norwegian
Gem, Norwegian Pearl, Norwegian Dawn and Norwegian Spirit for cigarette, cigar
and pipe smoking. In addition, the policy allows guests to smoke cigarettes,
cigars and pipes in outdoor public guest spaces and open decks, where designated
by the appropriate signage. Smoking is not permitted near outdoor venues which
serve food, in open spaces such as the jogging track, sport complex,
children’s pool and in The Haven outdoor areas.
