Also I only found out later that they have a smoking area in the departures area but I didn't see any signs for it in the terminal. That's a great facility to have for those of us that smoke but I didn't even know they had one.
I case you are flying another time from Terminal 1, here is a quick "how to find the smoking area":
After having finished the perfume maze and can see Starbucks, you will find some stairs to the right that lead up to the food terrace. Having reached the upper level you need to look for the toilets (slightly to the right) and then you'll also see the sign for the smoking area. Just follow the signs through the corridors, though fire doors and eventually you'll end up at the door to the fenced in smokers balcony.
