Since the casinos are in the center of the ships you almost have to walk through them to get to your destinations. I am so glad that they are stopping the smoking. The ATMs do not effect me much.
I believe they are adding a non smoking casinos not sure if completely removing smoking casinos as that would completely cut into their profits. We are hearing multiple different things regarding this. We will update when we know more.
The Vista, Panorama, Jubilee, Celebration and Mardi Gras all have separate non smoking casino areas. Smoking is still allowed in the main casino. You can check the deck plans for this information on their website. From what I understand from the published article, they are not going completely smoke free on the other ships but rather designating areas for non-smokers.
I was recently on the Mardi Gras most of the casino is still smoking just a section is nonsmoking I vape and sat down was doing well on a machine and some old man walked up to me freaking out telling me it was non smoking he caused a scene 😂 the attendant separated him from the casino 😂
@lynndee3884 we understand that they will always have a smoke free area on board but the news made it sound as though the casinos were going smoke free. We couldn’t understand that because many casino players were smokers. I like the idea of them just having a separate non smoking casino and hope that this is the route they take.
@@susanschultz2752 yes I agree many have switched but cruise lines consider vaping the same as smoking and it’s not allowed in cabins. Only in designated areas same as cigarettes. I know people still sneak vaping in other areas but if caught they will be banned from most cruise lines. 🛳️
I have bowled for decades and when the powers that be decided to eliminate smoking in bowling alleys, bowling suffered greatly, losing entire nights of league bowling. It will cost Carnival revenue, but I'm sure, because people love their cigars/cigarettes. As far as the ATMs, I don't like to carry lots of cash, so the ATM is a convenience that Carnival should keep.
I believe some ships will just have a separate non smoking casino and keep the smoking casinos. As for the ATM’s it’s being decided whether to remove them so that could change but many would agree with your comment as to losing business. Thank you for sharing! 🛳️😊
I’m sure this may be the same thing for many cruisers. Hopefully this won’t cause any issues for some. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful day. 😊🛳️
I don’t believe they are going smoke free but they are adding an additional smoke free casino that is separate from the main casino. As of May 2024, ten Carnival Cruise Line ships have non-smoking casino areas, including: Carnival Jubilee, Carnival Celebration, and Carnival Mardi Gras: The newest ships in the fleet Carnival Firenze, Carnival Venezia, Carnival Vista, Carnival Dream, Carnival Magic, and Carnival Breeze: Six other ships with non-smoking casino areas Carnival Splendor: The main casino on this ship that sails from Australia is non-smoking Carnival has been adding secondary smoke-free casinos on some of its ships to create a true smoke-free area. Smoking is permitted in designated areas on Carnival Cruise Line ships, including: Babylon Casino: Smoking is only allowed while seated and playing Decks 3 and 10: Smoking is allowed in designated areas on the starboard side Outdoor smoking area: Cigar and tobacco pipes are only permitted at the outdoor smoking area on Deck 10 Smoking is not permitted in restaurants, bistros/cafés, lounges, theaters, cabins, or on cabin balconies.
What are your thoughts on this topic? Will this affect your cruise? 🛳⚓

Thank you smoke free casino
Will u be able to get cash from the casino desk instead of the atm ???
Or guest services?
This I am not sure. 🤔 I would think so.
@ckilgore001 we’ve never had to get cash so I am not sure but that’s definitely a great question. 🤔
I am so happy for this, did they give a timeline for when they are doing this.
@@sharonfaulkner447 we did not find an exact date but if we find out we will certainly do an update. Hope you are doing well. 😊
Hey Sharon. John from TJ FUN. YES the 10 ships is now. No word when the rest of the fleet will join them
They are not going smoke free, they are adding a nonsmoking casino to the ships.

People are switching to vaping.

I've used the onboard ATMs before due to my past job paying bi-weekly, sometimes pay day happened when I was cruising.
I’m sure this may be the same thing for many cruisers. Hopefully this won’t cause any issues for some. Thank you for sharing. Have a wonderful day. 😊🛳️
