2 CABIN ATTENDANTS ON AN ACR B767 RPT THAT A PAX IGNORED THEIR ATTEMPTS TO CURTAIL HER SMOKING IN THE LAVATORIES.

Narrative

I AM THE MAIN CABIN GALLEY FLT ATTENDANT. I AM USUALLY IN THE GALLEY DURING FLT SETTING UP CARTS OR CLEANING AND PUTTING THINGS AWAY. I HAD NO IDEA ANYONE WAS SMOKING IN THE LAVATORIES UNTIL I HEARD OUR PURSER MAKE ANOTHER PA TELLING PEOPLE NOT TO SMOKE. LATER; THE SAME PA; ONLY THIS TIME A REF WAS MADE ABOUT SOMEONE SMOKING IN THE LAVATORIES. THIS WAS NOT OCCURRING IN MAIN CABIN; BUT I'D HEARD THAT BUSINESS CLASS LAVATORIES WERE INVOLVED. LATER; ANOTHER PA FROM THE CAPT. LATER AGAIN; THE PURSER MADE A PA SAYING PEOPLE WOULD HAVE TO ASK PERMISSION TO ENTER LAVATORIES. I TRIED TO MONITOR THEM WHEN I WASN'T BUSY; BUT I HAD A LOT OF WORK TO DO. CLOSE TO THE LAST COUPLE OF HRS IN THE FLT; WHEN PEOPLE WERE LINING UP TO USE THE MAIN CABIN LAVATORIES; I SMELLED CIGARETTE SMOKE BY THE AFT L-HAND LAVATORIES AND TOLD #6 CABIN ATTENDANT. HE SAID HE KNEW WHO IT WAS; AND I CONTINUED PUTTING AWAY THE CARTS AND WORKING. AS WE DEPLANED; I NOTICED THE POLICE (OR UNIFORMED PEOPLE) AT THE 1L DOOR JETBRIDGE. I ALSO SAW THE WOMAN WHO I'D BEEN TOLD HAD BEEN SMOKING. I DON'T RECALL EVER HAVING SEEN HER NEAR THE LAVATORIES IN THE BACK; BUT I AM USUALLY SO BUSY IN THE GALLEY; I DON'T SEE WHAT GOES ON AT ALL TIMES. OUR ONLY CONCERN WAS THAT IF SHE'S SO DESPERATE FOR A CIGARETTE; AND WILL CONTINUE TO HIDE IN THE LAVATORIES AND SMOKE HER CIGARETTES; WHERE WILL SHE PUT OUT HER CIGARETTES? ONE OF OUR ATTENDANTS EVEN WARNED HER HUSBAND ABOUT HIS WIFE SMOKING IN THE LAVATORIES; BUT STILL SHE CONTINUED.
