Yes, you can smoke at Pisa Galileo Galilei Airport (PSA) outside the terminal before security, where the airport’s rules allow smoking on the landside; the airport marks no spot and publishes no hours, so ask staff for the nearest place outside the doors. After security the airport allows smoking only in a smoking area set aside outside the terminal where one is provided, lists none on its maps, and a reader found no smoking area after security on 12 September 2026, so ask staff there. The airport bans smoking and electronic cigarettes inside the terminal, and Italian law bans smoking in enclosed premises open to the public (Legge 16 gennaio 2003, n. 3, article 51).

Before security: outside the terminal
The airport’s rules allow smoking outside the terminal on the landside and mark no spot, ashtray or hours for it. The forecourt in front of the terminal is being rebuilt for the terminal extension, and the airport says the outside layout, walking routes and signs change during the works, so ask staff for the nearest place to smoke outside the doors on the day.
After security
The airport’s rules allow smoking after security only outside the terminal, in a smoking area set aside for it where one is provided; its 2025 terminal maps mark no smoking area, and a reader found no smoking area after security on 12 September 2026. Ask staff whether one is open; if there is none, you leave the secure area to smoke outside the terminal and clear security again afterwards. The Galileo VIP Lounge, after security on the first floor of departures (05:00 to 22:00, €35 a person at the door), lists no smoking facility.
Vaping
The airport’s rules ban electronic cigarettes inside the terminal together with cigarettes, so vape where smoking is allowed, outside the terminal before security. The airport publishes no rule for heated tobacco, so ask staff; the Italian rule on e-cigarettes and heated tobacco is on our Italy guide below.
