是的,您可以在太原武宿国际机场(TYN)吸烟——T2航站楼安检后设有户外吸烟区,位于地面层国内远机位三角区,配有点烟器。这是TYN唯一的吸烟区;T1航站楼未设置吸烟区。

Wusu is the main airport for Shanxi province’s capital, currently operating two terminals side by side, with a much larger Terminal 3 under construction as part of a wider expansion that also brought a second runway into service in December 2025. According to the airport operator’s own facilities page, Taiyuan Airport Group, the smoking situation is split cleanly between the two current terminals: Terminal 1 has no smoking area at all, and Terminal 2 has one outdoor area after security.

武宿机场是山西省会太原的主要机场,目前并行运营两座航站楼,规模更大的T3航站楼正在建设中,是机场扩建工程的一部分,该工程还于2025年12月投用了第二条跑道。根据机场运营方山西航空产业集团的官方设施页面,目前两座航站楼的吸烟安排界限分明:T1航站楼完全未设置吸烟区,T2航站楼安检后设有一处户外吸烟区。

Terminal 2 Outdoor Smoking Area (Airside)

Taiyuan Airport Group’s facilities page states plainly that Terminal 2 has a designated outdoor smoking area in the domestic remote-stand triangle zone on the ground level, equipped with a lighter. Travellers place the same spot near Gate 17, reachable once you’ve cleared security and are heading toward the remote boarding gates.

T2航站楼户外吸烟区(空侧) — 山西航空产业集团的设施页面明确说明,T2航站楼在地面层国内远机位三角区设有指定户外吸烟区,配有点烟器。旅客反映该处靠近17号登机口,过安检前往远机位登机口途中可到达。

Terminal 1

Terminal 1 has no smoking area of any kind, according to the same official facilities page — no indoor room, no outdoor point, before or after security. Passengers flying from T1 who want to smoke need to either use the Terminal 2 outdoor area or wait until they land.

T1航站楼 — 根据同一官方设施页面,T1航站楼未设置任何形式的吸烟区——无论室内还是室外、安检前还是安检后均没有。从T1出发想吸烟的旅客需前往T2航站楼的户外吸烟区,或等到落地后再吸烟。

Before Security / Landside

Neither terminal has a landside smoking area before security — the airport’s own facilities page lists only the one airside outdoor point in T2. Passengers arriving early or dropping someone off should plan around this: there is nowhere to smoke on the public side of either terminal.

安检前 / 公共区 — 两座航站楼均未设置安检前的公共区吸烟点——机场官方设施页面仅列出T2航站楼安检后的这一处户外吸烟区。提早到达或送机的旅客需注意:两座航站楼的公共区都没有吸烟去处。

Vaping

The airport publishes no separate rule for e-cigarettes, so use the same outdoor area in Terminal 2.

电子烟 — 机场未公布针对电子烟的专门规定,请使用T2航站楼的同一户外吸烟区。
