Yes, you can smoke at Poitiers Biard Airport (PIS) — in designated outdoor areas outside the terminal building. The terminal interior is non-smoking and there is no airside smoking area, so plan your last cigarette before you pass through security.
Where to Smoke
Poitiers–Biard is a small single-terminal regional airport with largely seasonal service. Smoking is at the designated outdoor areas just outside the terminal entrance, landside (before security). There are no smoking rooms or terraces past the checkpoint, so connecting and departing passengers should smoke before screening; when you land, you can smoke again in the same areas in front of the terminal. The walk back outside is short.
