 trains from March 2024.●●●


 朗報

 近畿日本鉄道は、特急列車に設置している喫煙室を2024年3月から廃止することを決めた。 近畿日本鉄道は、一部の観光特急を
 除いて、「ひのとり」や「アーバンライナー」などの特急列車には、喫煙室を1か所以上設置して、分煙対策を進めてきた。
 しかし、JR東海、JR西日本、 JR九州での喫煙室の廃止の決定を受け、また乗客から「喫煙室を廃止してほしい」という要望が
 増えていたため、JRの決定に遅れること3か月、会社はやっと、特急列車に設置している合わせて126か所の喫煙室を2024年
 3月から廃止することを決めた。 廃止後、喫煙室として使っていた場所の活用方法については、今後、検討するとしている。
 最近新規導入した近鉄名阪特急の新型80000系「ひのとり」に
「車内の居住性を従来から大幅にグレードアップし、名阪間の
 ビジネス、観光、お出かけなど多様な用途のお客さまに快適な移動空間を提供」、「特に3号車に喫煙室を設置するなど、より
 快適な車内環境を整えます」 としていた。先進国が2003年から2007年の間にすべての列車内喫煙室を廃止したことも無視、
 喫煙行為をサポートして来た馬鹿さ加減を露呈していた。
