No smoking. Now, really, absolutely no smoking! Ok, here’s the ashtray.

As spotted on a Lufthansa Boeing 737.

  1. It’s as though they’re daring you to do it …. :)

    Shows how old these planes are doesn’t it. Can you imagine how horrible it would be on a flight with people smoking?! Yuck.

  3. Jenny says:

    I think all planes still have ashtrays. It seems like something they could remove and patch over or something.

    haha – I guess it’s only for use by the pilot.

  5. Rose says:

    yes that would just mess with you if you were a smoker trying very hard not to light up!

    I think it’s so cool that planes used to be smoker friendly…I can just imagine having a nice gin and tonic and a ciggy on a place ride to the Maldives! So James Bond..anyways, in reality I would find it totally gross. Hope the weekend was fun! Little L. is more adorable every time I see her! x LZ

  7. Ha ha…..I still remember the days when the back of economy class was one smoky fug. Uggh – how could any of us stand it?

    Before we had gobs of air miles and I travelled with my older two (as tots) to England, they used to stick all the families in the back – right next to the smokers. It was absolutely revolting!

  9. Oh how funny. Slightly concerned about the age of the plane! x

    Yeah I remember when people used to smoke on planes – I am sort of a smoker but I never did – just the thought makes me want to hurl.

    Also what’s with those funny notices in plane toilets about ‘tampering with smoke alarms will lead to being fined $500′ can you imagine being that desperate for a fag and gettting a criminal record for that ha ha

  11. EmmaK says:

    Ha ha do you remember the smoking carriages on the Tube? – you’d get on and when you got off you’d smell like a smoked kipper…no you were probably still in short trousers!

  12. Ha ha, brilliant. How observant you are.

  13. When I read the post, the first thing I thought was “oh, must be an old plane” seems I wasn’t alone!

    hilarious! I was on a plane once where someone smoked in the bathroom. in 06. this woman’s husband also tried to walk to a different seat DURING TAKEOFF…i got rushed by all the stewardesses. apparently they didn’t speak english and had never flown before. scary! aaand, that’s the end of my random story :)

  15. Make do mum says:

    Love it! Strange that they still have the ashtrays, at least it’s somewhere to stick your gum.

  16. Too funny. Glad I wasn’t in that toilet though, I hate smoking in the loos. Yuk.
