berbet Posted March 4, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I'm booked on the Breakaway. But just read someone's post about the Epic where they said that the elevators do not stop on the dining floors and you instead have to take the stairs. I have a bad knee and don't do stairs. I'm now concerned. I know we don't know what the Breakaway is like yet, but is this the way the other NCL ships are? Will I have to eat in my room because I can't walk up and down the stairs to the restaurant? Should I call NCL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDD06 Posted March 4, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I haven't seen the post you're referring to, but having just gotten off the Epic yesterday, I can assure you that the elevators stop on all decks, including those with dining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berbet Posted March 4, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Thank you! I couldn't imagine they didn't. This person was complaining about their trip and this was one of a long list of complaints. Thanks, that makes me feel much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDD06 Posted March 4, 2013 #4 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I found the "review" you're referring to. :rolleyes: perhaps those things really happened, but I have my doubts. I should clarify one thing, if you want to get to Taste, which is deck five mid-ship, you would need to use the forward elevators, the aft elevators do not go to deck five. You may find a similar layout on the Breakaway, but I'm confident that you'll be able to access all decks by elevator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdmike Posted March 4, 2013 #6 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Taste is mid-ship on deck 5 and the aft elevator only goes to 6 where the Manhattan Dining Room is. If you are in the rear elevators and want to go to Taste, just get off on 6 and walk forward to mid-ship and down the escalator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gelo7 Posted March 4, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I believe that the reviewer was referring to the aft elevators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bars7816 Posted March 4, 2013 #8 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I'm afraid that poster has been drinking his bathwater! :D I know -- rude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aces389 Posted March 4, 2013 #9 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I have been on several NCL ships and found that only one of the four aft elevators will stop at the MDR level. the hostess station is mid level and you have to tell them you are on there to be seated.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbrugler Posted March 7, 2013 #10 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Yes. The elevator will take you down to the dining room. However, it does not go back up. Once there, you have to eat the entire cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbrugler Posted March 7, 2013 #12 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Yes. That is why the elevators only go down. May I have another steak, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
