Im just wondering if anyone knows about whether you can smoke at the airport. Ive not been since the smoking ban and wondered if they have like an outside area after you go through passport control, or if not because its a security risk or something.

I believe either heathrow or gatwick has a dedicated outside smoking area in one of the departure lounges though. but i'm not sure which one.
Once you go through security no more smokes!>
I've flown from Gatwick and Heathrow recently and I couldn't find any smoking areas at all! It sucks, you have to smoke outside before you go on, and that's your last chance. I may be wrong but I searched high and low for a smoking area, trust! lol.
I think there is a smoking area in the VIP departures lounge in Brisbane...
Abu Dhabi and Doha airports have smoking rooms, but they're disgusting, there are no open windows or vents so you basically walk into a room full of smoke, your eyes watering from the moment you open the door, and your clothes will stink of smoke from them on! Singapore's smoking room is better, there are open windows.
Depends which terminal you were flying from. Maybe you were unlucky .
