No more smoking, vaping at Disney<\/p>\n

Disney made news earlier this month that it is completely banning smoking and vaping at all of its properties including Disney World and Disneyland.<\/p>\n

The ban takes effect on May 1. Disney will set up designated smoking areas outside of the parks.<\/p>\n

This is just part of a longstanding anti-tobacco policy by Disney. The studio already banned smoking in its movies a few years ago, even Marvel movies (sorry, Wolverine, no more smoking, oh, wait, Wolverine is dead now, I guess it’s a moot point.).<\/p>\n

Disney long had some small smoking areas in the parks. Even though it’s all outdoors, those smoking areas are being eliminated. You want to smoke, you have to leave the property and come back in.<\/p>\n

Pointedly, vaping is also included in this ban, even though vaping has no odour.<\/p>\n

From an Orlando Sentinel article:<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/em>It\u2019s about time,\u201d said Dennis Speigel, president of Ohio-based International Theme Park Services. \u201cIt\u2019s the happiest place on Earth \u2026 Why should people be subjected to smoke at Disney?\u201d<\/p>\n

Not everybody agreed.<\/p>\n

“It’s not fair,” said Denis Morissette, a Canadian tourist who waited for his daughter on a smoke break in the designated area near Space Mountain<\/a> at Magic<\/a> Kingdom on Thursday. \u201cIt’s legal. I think people who smoke should smoke if they want to smoke.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speigel said he expects the other parks will explore their smoking policies now, too.<\/p>\n

Disney often leads the theme park industry when it comes to trends. When Disney World raises theme park admission or increases worker pay, Universal and SeaWorld typically follow suit.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Whaaa. Cry me a river. If you really have<\/em> to smoke. YOU CAN STILL SMOKE. You just might have to walk a little further off the property. I thought pretty much all smokers had outgrown the whining about “fairness.” Fairness has nothing to do with it. It’s Disney’s property, they can ban smoking if they want.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
