Smoking at Wrocław Copernicus Airport – WRO

Yes, you can smoke at Wrocław Copernicus Airport (WRO) — an enclosed smoking cabin sits airside behind the Gate Bar near gates 1/2, the Executive Lounge has its own smoking room, 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. Reports on airportsmokers.com place it in this same spot across three consecutive years — 2024, 2025 and 2026 — which is why this page treats the cabin as confirmed.

Executive Lounge Smoking Room (Airside)

The airport’s Executive Lounge, opposite gate 9, has its own smoking room, reported in an August 2024 update on airportsmokers.com. 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.
