Yes, the smoking room is now closed. My Partner smokes, to do this she had to go through arrivals and back into the terminal for a smoke!

The person on the arrivals/passport desk didn't really 'get it' and was quite rude. Saying that there wasn't time to have a smoke, etc, and get back through security for the flight.

However, all was fine as the security fastrack was open. I gather that it's sometimes closed, so watch out for that.

The friendly lounge dragon knew of a short cut, so may be best asking first.

Hope this helps.

I can't help thinking it's easier not to smoke
