What a contradiction in different aspects of this cruise. Like the little girl who was some times very, very good and at other times very, very bad, the Breakaway presented many faces in so many different places. I’ve sail over thirty times on several different lines. On this trip, we experience the best and the worst. I’ll try to point these out in the following:
Embarkation – Easy drop off and unloading of luggage. The lines inside moved rapidly and the staff was polite and knowledgeable. It took about 45 minutes from exiting the car to boarding the ship. Since we had no special boarding perk with this cruise line, I think it went rather well.
Initial impression of the ship – She is new so therefore there was little in disrepair. The colors were much more muted than on the other NCL ships that we’ve been on. The décor was very pleasing to the eye. She looked good.
Room just a little tight but not bad. Bathroom good size and a very nice shower- Balcony very tiny
