My husband and I (both in our 40's), sailed the Breakaway July 7-14th. This was our second cruise. We sailed on the NCL Dawn in July 2010, same trip NYC to Bermuda. We are very private people, not looking to meet new people or to get to know the staff on board...we just want to do our thing and relax. Overall, we had a great time!! It was so nice to be on a brand new ship!! I think I enjoy the smaller ship with less people, but I did enjoy the technology on the Breakaway. I do suggest arriving early to the pier. We arrived about 11:30, and people were already on the ship! It took us about an hour to get checked in and on board. Long lines, but organized well.

~I did feel the ship moving at times. I wore my seabands, and did not get sick at all.
