British American Tobacco, Egypt (BAT), together with the Egyptian Hotel Association (EHA) in Alexandria and Hurghada, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with immediate effect, aimed at providing hotel guests in both cities with designated non-smoking and smoking areas.

The initiative has been developed under the framework of BAT’s global “Respecting Choices” program, which ensures that both non-smoking and smoking customers are equally catered to through a mutually beneficial solution.

Through this project, clear signage will be available in outlets directing both non-smokers and smokers to their respective areas.

The “Respecting Choices” project targets ETS through two methods: Segregation, which features both smoking and non-smoking areas in the same room, using airflow to limit the spread of smoke; and Separation, which features smoking rooms or lounges, using walls along with airflow techniques to prevent the smoke from spreading.
