Yes. *Added - This is a subjective question and every individual has their own opinion, so it cannot be properly answered.

If the discrimination is done strictly on the basis of favoritism it's probably not "fair," but I don't believe that any law (that I am aware of) protects against deiscrimination based on people's smokiing habits.
