P&O Cruises Australia has extended its ban on smoking to include all indoor areas on its ships from July 2008. Ann Sherry, chief executive of Carnival Australia which operates P&O Cruises, said the move reflected changing social trends and customer feedback.
“The majority of passengers have indicated they’d prefer to cruise in a smoke-free environment,” said Sherry. “Clearly there’s been a shift in community thinking on this issue and we’re keeping pace with that.”
