Yes, you can smoke at Wrocław Copernicus Airport (WRO) — an enclosed smoking cabin sits airside behind the Gate Bar near gates 1/2, a traveller described a smoking room in the Executive Lounge in August 2024, and smoking is allowed outdoors landside for anyone before security.
Wrocław Copernicus Airport serves Lower Silesia from a single passenger terminal. If your connection runs through the capital, Warsaw Chopin Airport (WAW) has enclosed smoking booths on both its Schengen and non-Schengen concourses too.
After Security: Gate Bar Cabin (Airside)
Once through security, the main smoking option is an enclosed cabin behind the Gate Bar, near gates 1/2, in the non-Schengen departure section. Travellers described it in this same spot in 2024, 2025 and 2026.
Executive Lounge Smoking Room (Airside)
The airport’s Executive Lounge, opposite gate 9, has its own smoking room, described by a traveller in August 2024. Lounge access follows the lounge’s own entry rules — check with the lounge operator or your travel benefits before counting on it.
Landside (Before Security)
Smoking is allowed outdoors, landside, outside the terminal building, before you check in and clear security. There’s no indoor landside option, so smokers arriving early or seeing someone off need to step outside.
Vaping
Poland’s 22 July 2016 amendment to the tobacco-products health law extends the same enclosed-public-place rules to e-cigarettes, so vape in the Gate Bar cabin or outdoors landside at Wrocław, the same as cigarettes. The airport publishes no separate rule for heated-tobacco devices.
