Regguy Posted October 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 20, 2017 We have a 8th floor balcony on Ovation that appears to be right above the outdoor smoking shelter on deck five. Does anyone have any experience whether the smoke from the outdoor area affects the cabins above? I'm assuming it must, but maybe they have designed it not to.

Clarea Posted October 20, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 20, 2017 We've been above the outside smoking deck on other ships and never had a problem with smelling smoke from the outside deck. I suspect it's more likely you will smell smoke from someone on a nearby balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jr8934 Posted October 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Clarea is right. we were in a balcony room. The cabin beneath us had a cigar smoker. Couldn't use our balcony. It was a while ago but shows that the smoke does rise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out threads for Anthem and Quantum, people have complained about the smoke near that outdoor smoking shelter. Not sure deck 8 would be too bad, but it is recommended to avoid that area on the lower balconies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottygirl1 Posted October 20, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Yes, there is a review for Ovation where they said it was the worst cabin on the ship - they were directly above and looking down on the smoking area on level 5. Here is a Youtube video of that complaint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a Youtube video of that complaint. That video is of cabin 6682, OP is on deck 8. If they have 8682, then probably best to get a new cabin.

Merion_Mom Posted October 20, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 20, 2017 You won't have a problem on Deck 8. Unlike other ships that simply allow smoking outside on the promenade deck, Quantum class ships have the "bus stop", which is basically enclosed. I was on Deck 9 above the bus stop, and some great stuff was happening on the pier in Martinique. I watched from my balcony. As I glanced around at "everyone" also leaning out and watching from their balconies, I was STUNNED at how many were smoking!!!! One person even flicked a butt down and it landed on the roof of the "bus stop" right below me. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few cabins forward - 8668. I think it may be above a life boat just forward of the smoking structure but I cannot tell really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really, I wouldn't worry about your cabin & smoking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyitsmema Posted October 20, 2017 #10 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Really, I wouldn't worry about your cabin & smoking. I wouldn't worry either since they are forward of the bus stop and three decks up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying to find a picture of the starboard side on the internet that would show it and I am having trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
