The percentage of the population that smokes is 20% to 25%.
When you eliminate 1/4 of your POSSIBLE customers you better be sure that the other 75% really care that much about what you're doing.
They started this in '98 during the high tech boom. It never garnered the amount of non-smoking customers they thought it would.

Besides, I smoke but my husband doesn't, if I can't go neither will he. So I think that shrinks the base by another 10%.

And don't forget the percentage of the non-smokers who are married to or dating smokers. These folks won't be cruising alone.
