Royal Caribbean Expands Non-Smoking Casino on Allure of the Seas


Royal Caribbean has replaced two former venues on the Allure of the Seas with a new non-smoking casino. The new casino features slots almost exclusively and does not allow smoking. The Blaze and Comedy Live venues were closed and demolished to make space for the new gaming space.

The new casino allows transit of under-18 individuals through the deck, but no such individual may linger at the casino. This expansion builds on Royal Caribbean's legacy of offering non-smoking gaming options. In 2023, the Allure of the Seas featured a non-smoking casino on the former Jazz on 4 location. In 2025, Royal Caribbean converted part of the Utopia of the Seas' casino into a non-smoking gaming area.

This shift towards non-smoking options reflects changing consumer preferences, with more people preferring gaming sessions without second-hand smoke.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
