As we all know that the Chinese like their tobacco, is it safe to assume that Hong Kong Disneyland will have a smoker-friendly smoking policy like Disneyland Paris?

I assume HKDL will probably have a similar smoking policy to those at TDR, WDW, and DLR. DLP as we know..is hopeless since their guests disregard policies and are not keen to be told (nor respect) to smoke or behave properly while in the park. It's an euro thing I guess..

Well you know Paris, France and Tokyo, Japan are both democratic free countries.
Hong Kong, now that it's part of China again, even though it is semi autonomous is under the thumb of the Beijing government and I would expect anyone who gets arrested in the park will never be heard from again.
So I wouldn't break any rules, people ! ! ! No spitting out the window on the monorail if you dont want to disappear in to a gulag. :confused: :lol:

ORWEN: Like as if the management at Disney Theme parks even ENFORCES these no smoking rules. Just last week--while eating that Pinocchio Village Hauss at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom--we saw this man light up a cigarette there--even as a cast member was cleaning up tables nearby--only to be ignored. I guess the cast members don't like confrontation any better than the next witch does. Still, you'd think the cast member would have said something to make the guest put out his fag...

...and you probably have never been to DLP, otherwise you'd know what I am talking about, and that the problem does go beyond the smoking situation but also into other areas of guest behavior in the parks. ..And yes: it IS an 'euro thing', because for example..the japanese smoke like there is no tomorrow but respect "no smoking" rules. The euros do not like to be told NOT to do something, and still disregard without cares. That is my constant experience when I am in Europe, and I do go there often enough, thank you.

I've been to Disneyland Paris countless times and I live quite nearby, actually... I just think you're exaggerating. Sure, during parades people climb onto the grass and people do smoke in queues once in a blue moon... But don't generalise an entire continent as being rude anarchists.
I'm sure I am, but then I'm no poster child for Europe, haha.
And the DLRP policy... Is there one? They don't have designated smoking areas outside, that's for sure.

Yes there is some people who get offended I am one of them, no I don't smoke but I have never known it to be too bad in DLRP the smoking situation. I have to say that only once have I seen anyone not respecting property, that was once and I can say I don't think it is a thing that happens a lot.

Well, then apparently that works for Europeans. But I must be blinded by my being European as I really don't recall standing in a lot of smoke-polluted queues. And I've been there quite a few times. And people do step on things they shouldn't, but well, I guess this sort of thing doesn't bother me as much as it bothers you... But we're all entitled to our pet peeves.
And I do agree that there should be designated smoking areas. But try to look at it this way, diversity is nice. And what Europe lacks in proper smoking behaviour, it makes up in a general feeling of freedom and the kind of down-to-earth rationality that comes with age. Every continent has its perks.
