Yes, you can smoke at Tours Loire Valley Airport (TUF), but outdoors only — in the open air in front of the single terminal building. The terminal interior is non-smoking.

Outside the Terminal

Tours Val de Loire (TUF) is a small single-terminal airport serving the Loire Valley, with seasonal Ryanair routes. Smoking is in the open air outside the terminal, near the main entrance. The terminal is compact, so it is a short walk from the outdoor areas to check-in and security.

After Security

There is no indoor smoking room or airside terrace at Tours, so plan to smoke outside the terminal before you clear security. When you land, you can smoke again in the same outdoor areas in front of the building.
