Yes, you can smoke at Lombok International Airport (LOP) — in a smoking room inside a café near Gate 1 in the international departures area, after security, plus a second spot on the upper level before passport control. Before security, there’s an open-air smoking area outside the terminal.
Also known as Zainuddin Abdul Madjid International Airport, Lombok runs through a single integrated terminal serving both domestic and international flights.
After Security: International Departures
Travellers on airportsmokers.com have reported smoking facilities in the international departures area consistently since 2023. An August 2024 update describes at least two smoking rooms in the departure lounge after the security check; a more recent October 2025 update narrows one of them to a café near Gate 1, and separately notes a smoking area on the upper level before you reach passport control. An earlier 2023 report on the same café room mentioned a minimum purchase of around IDR 25,000 to use it — bring some cash in case that still applies.
Domestic Departures
There is no dated report confirming an indoor smoking room on the domestic side of the terminal. If you’re flying domestically, the outdoor area outside the terminal before security is the confirmed option.
Before Security: Outside the Terminal
Landside, open-air smoking outside the terminal building is permitted — Indonesian law (Government Regulation No. 28/2024) governs designated indoor and enclosed smoking spaces (Kawasan Tanpa Rokok), not open ground outside a building. Use this option before check-in or while waiting for arriving passengers.
Vaping
Lombok publishes no separate e-cigarette rule, and Indonesia’s Government Regulation No. 28/2024 regulates vaping products rather than banning them nationwide. Treat a vape the same as a cigarette and use the café smoking room in international departures or the open air outside the terminal before security.
