I sat on a lounge chair one day and was told that this is not permitted because the chairs are plastic and a fire hazard. There are not nearly enough chairs provided, so many people have to stand. This is a really long walk for passengers who are in cabins near the front of the ship. There is only one area designated for cigarette smokers, at the rear of the ship on Deck 8. Having just returned from a 12 day cruise from New York City roundtrip to the Southern Caribbean, I just want to warn smokers that you may not feel very welcome on the QM2.
