Smokers - can you help, MIA?

Am transiting MIA in a couple of weeks, with AA - flying in from BGI, 2.5 hour wait then onto LHR.

As a smoker (not many of us left!), it would be good to know if there's an accessible smoking area I can use during this layover.

Anyone with any info to share?

Many thanks,

It's been a while since I've been through MIA, but I seem to remember there isn't anywhere you can smoke inside the terminal building sorry.

The only US airport that VS use that I know still has a smoking lounge inside the terminal is IAD. The old LAS terminal did used to but no idea about the new one?

In the UK, MAN T1 & T2 also have smoking areas, whilst located outside, they are still airside.

Only place I had to smoke when I was last there was outside.
Back out and then queue thru security again. Drag!!

From here:

Q. - Where are the smoking areas, once it pass the security check points?
A. - There are no smoking areas past security checkpoint. Smoking is permitted only in designated curbside areas on the first and second level, across the street from the terminal.


I guess you could read it as "There are 'No Smoking' areas past security checkpoint. But probably not.

Thanks for your help y'all - guess it will be a long a grumpy journey home.

hope this helps - smoking policies for the 35 busiest US airports

Noodles - that's a good find, thank you.

Fly Ryanair instead

Get electronic cigarettes to fill the gap in the airport, but don't use them on virgin flights, not allowed.
