I'm going to be on 9 aft next week so I can post pics soon! I've heard that 9 has the biggest balconies!!

How much is a card?

My husband talked to someone who got off the Breakaway and said Mimosa's weren't allowed...true or not? Thanks!

Thank you!!

I sent ncl a note that I will be traveling with a wheelchair and a cane. In NYC is there a special place to embark? Do we get priority boarding? Thanks!

We are going to be staying in 9318 in 11 days!!! Can't wait!!

Here's the first 3 minutes or so of the GLOW party. The ship was moving pretty fast and it was rocking just a bit, but I think that made the party even more fun.

 

 

As I said before, we brought plenty of glow items, but they also gave out lots of them too. And they also were putting face paint on people as well.

 

 

 

We only stayed for around 45 minutes and by then we were exhausted. Sea day tomorrow.

I love your top and pants...where did you get them? Thanks!!

Has anyone every taken advantage of the medspa on any ncl cruise??? Botox, Fillers, etc???? Prices and outcome please share...thank you..

Thank you all!!! We booked a BX which was a guaranteed balcony and are blessed to receive the B1 which is an AFT Balcony for our first balcony..I think we will be super spoiled!!! Love it!! Any ideas or info much appreciated!!

Thank you for your thoughts and opinions, especially the link to the menu. Much appreciated!!

I stayed in 9318. It was awesome. So peaceful. Balcony is huge. Mix and sun and shade.

 

We also could see the fireworks from our balcony.

 

I took a lot of beautiful sunrise pictures sailing into Bermuda and up the Hudson.

That is the exact room we are in!!! Could you please share more (pics, tips, anything!!??!!!)) So excited, thanks!!!

We were in an AFT facing balcony on deck 12 last time I was on Breakaway and booked in an AFT Balcony on deck 9 in Sept.....I love the AFT, it is my favorite spot. The balconies are much deeper and in fact huge in comparison to side balconies on Breakaway. The biggest are deck 9, then 12

 

It can be loud when the door is open from the wake, but I love the sound....Sometimes when you are docking you get a little vibration but not a lot.

 

You do not get wind back on the AFT so you can sit out there anytime and because they are so deep you get some shade and some sun.

Sounds so awesome, thank you for your thoughts!!!

Where can we see our OBC on http://www.NCL.com? Help and where can we add it as well!!! Thanks!!!

We just got our cabin assignment for the Breakaway this March. We booked a BX and got a B1!! Please share your thoughts and tips about the aft balcony. So excited!!!

Thank you.

Can we have breakfast at Cagney's??

Just got back- would recommend some of the following things:

 

1. Waterfall by Spice H20

2. Try Cagney's once

3. Try the Pot Pie at O Shennans

4. Try the Pot Pie at O Shennans again

5. Call a week before or so to check on upgrading

6. Also sit out by waterfront during the day- walk around it later at night

7. Go to GSC for 4-5 hours, make that port priority #1

8. Have Pot Pie again at O Shennans- to go- and eat on balcony

9. Go to Howl at Moon

10. Go to Fat Cats

11. Try Eggplant Parm

12. Pack on Friday so you can enjoy Saturday-

13. Do Bingo 1-4 times but skip slots, Bingo is more sociable

14. Do Wine Lovers show and when you get there drink everything in sight ASAP as they will replace it.

14b. If you are not sure if the drink is your neighbors; drink it anyway to be on the safe side.

15. Try to sleep 6 hours a night so you won't be writing a silly list of 21 things to try the evening after you get back and return to work for 11 hours.

16. Bring one of those 24 ounce or 32 ounce water bottles- they come in handy for orange juice, tea etc.. Especially when faced with having to carry Pot Pie outside.

17. Think twice about shore excursions, sometimes it is more enjoyable to stay on the ship and spend the money on bingo instead.

18. Consider doing a shore excursion perhaps after losing at bingo 3 times.

19. If you are still reading this, consider going to NCL and researching the shore excursions. Or perhaps just read a book instead.

20. Sometimes it is worth it to pick you cabin even when upgrading- read others reviews to see if there are areas to avoid

21. Go to the MDR for lunch perhaps at least once or twice- it is a nice break from the buffet and relaxing to sit.

LOVE this list!!! Can't wait to try the Pot pie!!!

I just booked the Breakaway for March 22, 2015 and looking for any tips or advice or helpful hints, I've never sailed on the Breakaway before :)

 

 

Thanks so much !!

We are booked for the same cruise!!! Are you on our meet up group as well? :)

I think it's 100 less pp than we've booked for, I will let you know what my TA tells me! Thanks

Never hung one and never will. I see no purpose.

Wow..rude...

Is it truly worth the surcharge??? Menus? Reviews??? Please!! Thanks!!

Evaluations and is it worth it??? Please share as much as possible!! Thanks!!

We will generally do a guaranteed balcony. We have never had a "bad" balcony.

Last summer we booked a guaranteed balcony on the Getaway and were upgraded to a Spa balcony. Which allowed us unlimited access to the spa, which we enjoyed, but probably wouldn't have paid an extra $200 pp for.

We've booked a gty balcony for the Breakaway and got the free beverage package. If we got a spa balcony they couldn't take that away from us, right?

Those that have been called.......

were you in a suite?

 

Harriet

Nope, we've been called with both an inside and an ocean view.

We've sailed on an inside and an oceanview but got a great deal on a balcony this time coming up in March on the Breakaway. A couple of questions:

Is it worth it? We've had a negative Nelly friend tell us it's SO windy and blah blah...

What do you like about a balcony?

Thanks!!
