Review summary

This is our 2nd time on the Sunshine. The last time we ( smokers ) were able to set next to and behind the DJ area and enjoy the entertainment like others but this time we could at least hear a little of the music but we were moved way down the side. Sunshine has a little bigger place for the smokers to enjoy the sun than the Magic . During days at sea ( in our little smoking corner) they didn't have enough chairs out BUT plenty stacked up and roped off not enough ash trays. Employees were great and friendly. The ship was very crowded stood in lines everywhere we went

Lol, y'all jumping on a smoker is hilarious. Last I knew, this STILL is a choice that those so inclined are able to do so. We ALL pay for our vacations. We ALL should be able to enjoy, or not, as we so choose. That said, I'd of asked for chairs because I honestly don't see them denying anything to passengers on Carnivals Amazing Cruises. Relax n Enjoy. We do. Never had a bad cruise. It's truly a choice. Be miserable Or have a great time. We choose the latter ð

why people smoke these days is a mystery. the cost alone should make it so people would quit. just not a smart choice

I would love to have a "Smoke Free Ship". Beware they are pretty pricey. That's about the only way that's gonna happen ,

Carnival tried a no smoking ship the Paradise was launched as no smoking ship. This did not last long because smokers drink and gamble more then non smokers. :-(

I would love to have a smoke free ship. Maybe one day when all of the smokers are gone, that will happen.
