I have sailed on the Paradise twice and loved it. It was great being able to go to a casino or lounge without having smoke blown in my face. You could walk around any deck and not have to inhale that disgusting second-hand smoke. I never had to smell the lingering stale tobacco odor in the cabin. Call me whiney, but I can't stand the smell of cigarette smoke, and it was wonderful having a smoke free vacation. I will miss the Paradise.


OBVIOUSLY THEY ARE NOT GOING TO MISS....you.

I was just on the Paradise a couple of months ago and figured that it was going to be a short-term experiment. Carnival is indeed a budget cruise line, but they make their money back on liquor and gambling. Non-smokers don't drink or gamble as much. The bars were all dead and the casino was usually empty.
