That’s wonderful my FRiend!
I hope you beat the habit for good :-)

And yes, smokers are discriminated against!

I’m anti-smoking but it’s all been carried way too far IMO.

I hated air travel when the cabin was full of smoke, and it was a relief when smoking was banned in planes. But imagine how hard it is for heavy smokers to go so long without a cigarette...surely something could be done like a small smoking cabin with separate ventilation.

They won’t even allow smoking on flights set aside for smokers only....I just don’t see why that is not allowed as long as the crew are all smokers as well. WHY NOT ALLOW THIS!?

They won’t allow smokers only bars or restaurants...why the F not?

Honestly I’d be happier if things went back to the way they were in the 60s .... I’d rather wheeze a bit than live in this crazy over-regulated world the leftists have made.

Proprietors should be the determining factor. NOT big brother. NON smoking places will attract non smokers and smoking places will attract smokers who aren’t well received at the other places.

I agree, I spent all day (twice as round trip) flying a couple years ago, switched planes. I have no problem with not smoking in a plane, that air has no where to go. My issue was they really should have smoking areas in airports. Just small areas where it is allowed, that is all I ask. Especially if there is a layover, the only way to smoke is to leave the terminal buildings and then you have to clear security and all that again. Craziness. I have heard rumors that VIPs (who pay a fortune for extra treatment) do have a private lounge area at larger airports where they can smoke but no idea if that is true.

Yes smoking bars and restaurants should also be allowed, leave that up to the owner. Non smokers don’t have to go to those places if they choose not to.
