Smoking is also not allowed in facilities owned by the state or counties, or enclosed or partially enclosed places open to the public, including all airports. The ban includes buses and taxis, along with sports arenas, outdoor stadiums and amphitheaters.
No smoking is allowed within 20 feet of entrances, exits, windows and ventilation intakes of structures in which smoking is banned.
Hotels may designate smoking rooms, but no more than 20 percent of the rooms may allow smoking and they must be on the same floor.

Just remember that the smoking ban will blanket the airport. There'll be no smoking from "curb to cabin" as the government is calling it.
I think this is a step in the right direction, IMHO.
