![]() ![]() Additionally, it only seats 800 people so if there is a really good act you want to see, better get there early to find a seat. The stage itself is rather small and I get that it’s not the only venue on the ship for entertainment, but it wasn’t as extraordinary as you might expect. I can only liken it to a chain hotel’s conference room where everything is the same from one hotel to the next. The rest of the ship is modern and stylish while the theater seemed underwhelming. I was surprised at how the theater seemed to not fit with the overall ship in terms of design. Normally the theater has high impact with a big stage, tall velvet curtains, and tiers of seating. The Breakaway Theater, in a word, is purple. Compared to other cruise lines that set up tables in public areas to distribute tickets, this is by far the most organized and professional looking way to get tickets. The Box Office is a nice addition and is a dedicated area for guests to pick up their tickets to one of the many entertainment venues on the ship. The Box OfficeĪt this point you’ll enter the ship on deck 7 with O’Sheehan’s Neighborhood Bar & Grill to your left and the Box Office and Breakaway Theater to your right.

Your choices are that you can stay at home and clean, cook, talk to your in-laws, etc. ![]() What a difference a few hours make! This is the same area at 12:30 pm when most of the people were showing up to check in and it was a zoo. Granted, they recommend that you show up at 11 am to begin boarding around noon, but clearly people were showing up before that time. As I like to avoid unnecessary crowds, I would highly recommend arriving here at this time to get checked in for your cruise. Upon arrival to Pier 88 at Manhattan Cruise Terminal at about 10:30 am, it was pretty much a ghost town. I recently had the opportunity to tour the ship on Novemand I took so many pictures and notes that there will be several parts to this review in order to cover the entire ship. With a passenger capacity of 3,969 and and overall length of 1068.3 feet, the Breakaway is the newest and largest ship embarking from New York City. Like big ships? Like brand new ships? The Norwegian Breakaway is Norwegian Cruise Line‘s newest ship that calls New York City it’s home. ![]()
