  • We just got off the Norwegian Breakaway in February and I'm sharing the 5 best and worst features of the ship! This is my personal review of after having sailed several NCL ships. It's a fantastic ship for families however there were a few drawbacks.
    Please leave comments below of your thoughts of the Breakaway.

      Brenda Evans So I’m not concerned about corona, but a little worried about missing ports or getting quarantined. Are you concerned at all about that?

    • @brendaevans9981
      @brendaevans9981 4 года назад +1

      @@DestinedJourney no we aren't worried about Norwegian's island since they haven't reported any issues and only NCL ships stop there. Not concerned about Jamaica or Grand Cayman either. Have heard that Cozumel had a case of Coronavirus, but not positive about that. We've been to Cozumel twice within the year, so we may just stay onboard that day. Not worrying about quarantine if needed.

    I've cruised several times on rcl and ncl, never had issues with cleanliness or got sick. I don't do hot tubs or pools either though. Just the thought of people drinking all day sitting in those hot tubs grosses me rite out

    • @DestinedJourney
      @DestinedJourney  Год назад

      To be honest, I've never understood soaking in a hot tub on an 85 degree day.

    @sarahcandito9519 4 года назад

    Did you make a decision regarding whether you will be cruising or not?
    Also, does your small steamer get taken away? I’ve seen it’s on their banned list

    • @DestinedJourney
      @DestinedJourney  4 года назад

      Sarah Candito As of today we can cancel however we DO really want to go! We’re going to wait it out and see how things transpire over the next couple of weeks, since we have until 48 hrs prior to decide.
      I read that about the steamer so I’m probably going to leave it home. 😭

    When was your cruise? “Crowded” can be relative to the time of year.

    • @DestinedJourney
      @DestinedJourney  10 месяцев назад

      The ship was more than likely sold out but we’ve been on other sold out NCL ships that did not feel as crowded. We sailed the Breakaway twice. The first before Covid which was sold out and felt like it. Even more so than other sold out cruises. After Covid it was half capacity and wonderful!!! If sailing an NCL megaship I would go with the Bliss class if it was high season.

    There are always lines on cruises at the bar due to prepaid free at sea. Perhaps you should use a more upscale line.

  • @patrickmanley4943
    @patrickmanley4943 10 месяцев назад +1

    As to the overcrowding at the bars on the ship aren’t there waiters/waitresses roaming around asking you if you’d like a drink ?

    • @DestinedJourney
      @DestinedJourney  10 месяцев назад

      There are but the area gets so congested it often takes longer to get noticed that way rather than standing in line.

    Have to agree..just sailed March 27th to Apr 3 of 2022 out of New Orleans on Breakaway. Only had around 2200 on board, but no white wine, except for the vinegar testing dry. We made mistake of going on spring break too....too many kids. Locations where it should be adult only. People still showed up and then we're offended the way some people were dancing or speaking....NO KIDS MEANS NO KIDS...
    Probably going to look at future cruises on the older smaller ships...less activities for kids..therefore less likely to have them on board.
    The Shanghai Noodle Bar was great...wished we had eaten there more...
    Overall..good trip..

    Going on Breakaway Oct. 31, 2021. 13th cruise (2nd with NCL). Did they remove Margaritaville with the refurbish in 2018? What did they put in it's place? Thanks for the info. :)

    • @brendanschuierer4678
      @brendanschuierer4678 3 года назад +1

      I thought Margaritaville was a nice quite place to have breakfast. Most people did not know it was there.

    • @dicknijenhuis9894
      @dicknijenhuis9894 Год назад

      American Diner replaced Margaritaville. It's listed as a specialty restaurant. If it was complimentary I would probably try it.
