I'm a smoker when I drink, and mostly vape the rest of the time. When I travel, I tend to drink more than I usually do. I also *despise* smoking indoors in a poorly ventilated space, and would be quite grateful to have resources that help steer me towards (or away from) an appropriate venue.
On Cruise Critic, where I am very active whenever I have an upcoming sailing, the response to any question about smoking is usually quite negative. If there are mods here that would be willing to make a commitment of weeding out the debates, I think the idea is very helpful.

If and when there's a new forum, there might or might not be a thread inviting comments on how the forum should operate and what some of the basic ground rules could be.

I can't recall off-hand if any current moderators smoke. It's a pretty large group, so surely there must be a smoker or two lurking! Assigning a smoker to the new forum would probably be a good move, but that's the CD's decision, of course.

Would love to see that. Always good to know where theres a smoke room, which ones have good air vents, and I'm sure theres a comical story or two about idiots vaping on planes.
Two cigarettes up! (and yes, I'm smoker

Support.
I'm a smoker and would like a forum where I can both provide input and ask questions regarding airports, hotels etc where smoking is allowed.

As it happens (not to you, but to whom you were responding) I trawl the internet whenever I book a flight to a new destination to research just the topics that I feel that this would address. If anyone else can point me to a similar resource I will be happy to go there instead.
I suspect that none such other resource exists.
