I recently took a cruise on the Carnival Pride out of Baltimore. I was particularly looking forward to spending some time in the cigar bar they advertised.

I was disappointed. The cigar bar is not a dedicated cigar bar but the sports bar. At any given time there were four to six crew members smoking cigarettes and the ratio of cigarette smokers to cigar smokers is 8:1, at best.

The smell of cigarettes was overwhelming and detracted from my ability to enjoy my time with a cigar.

I took a photo of the cigar bar menu (which was only put out in the afternoons/evenings). There was nothing in the way of cedar spills, lighters, or cutters available. I had a difficult time just finding a cigar ashtray some days.

I walked into the casino to try to find any sort of ashtray and was quickly scolded by a crew member who basically ordered me back into the sports bar with my cigar.

I was underwhelmed, YMMV.
