Fujairah International Airport (FJR) publishes no smoking area, indoors or after security: the airport’s own passenger guide lists none. Ask airport staff where smoking is permitted before you light up.

FJR is a small, single-terminal airport on the UAE’s east coast, run by Fujairah’s Department of Civil Aviation. It is best known as a cargo, charter and pilot-training hub — home to the Fujairah Aviation Academy and several aircraft maintenance operators — alongside a modest scheduled-passenger side served by IndiGo and SpiceJet to India and SalamAir to Muscat.

After Security

Past check-in and immigration, the airport’s own passenger guide (archived 2024) to its departure area points passengers to duty-free shopping, an upstairs café, and the Siji Lounge for business-class travellers. None of these pages mentions a smoking room anywhere in the departure area.

Lounges

The Siji Lounge, for business-class guests, and a separate charter lounge for private and charter passengers are both described in the airport’s own passenger guide with no mention of a smoking facility.

Landside, Before Security

The airport’s own passenger guide lists no landside smoking area at FJR either.

E-Cigarettes and Vaping

E-cigarettes are legal across the UAE. FJR’s own passenger guide lists no smoking facility of any kind, and names no vaping area either.
