Default Smoking on Costa Cruises

Has anyone taken a Costa cruise in Europe? I'd like to try it, but
don't like being around smoking, and I understand that smoking is
widely permitted on Costa ships (though not in the dining rooms).

Occasional smoking isn't a problem, but if there is a lot of smoking
(as in restaurants in Holland and Belgium), it would be unpleasant.

Any help would be appreciated.

As for the mentioned restaurants I think smoking is banned today in
Netherlands and Belgium ?

There is no more smoking in restaurants in Belgium and Holland. In
Holland it was banned last year, in Belgium it has been banned years
ago.

Wow - I guess it is 7 years since I was in Belgium. So - make that
"as there used to be in restaurants in Holland and Belgium".

Any info for me on Costa cruises?

Thanks,

There is plenty of smoking outside Dutch restaurants.


Hey, guys, before you all take off on an incidental tangent, can't
anyone answer the OP's question about the cruises he ASKED about????
