Cigars On Cruise

Just got from a 7 day cruise on the RC Freedom of the Seas:

-the ship did have a dedicated cigar lounge that, while nicely appointed, is a touch out of the way of everything else and is somewhat small compared to some of the lounges I have heard about on Carnival ships (still a nice quiet spot though).

- RC seems to believe in the complete BS idea of allowing cigarette smoking in certain public bar/areas, but NOT allowing pipe or cigars in those same areas. So, I stuck to outdoor decks/bars (no one even looked at my brother and I twice when we lit up anywhere outdoors) and the cigar lounge after dinner.

As far as purchasing CC's at ports... FLAT out don't bother unless its an LCDH. I found an LCDH in Grand Cayman and nearly passed out at the prices... 15-30 USD as a rough estimate for singles.... NO THANKS.
