Norwegian Breakaway's $40,000,000 Refit - What's Changed?

Editorial Summary

The creator provides a detailed walkthrough of the recent refurbishment on the Norwegian Breakaway following its dry dock. The tour begins with the exterior of the ship, noting a fresh coat of paint and the touch-up of the Peter Max hull artwork. Moving onboard, the creator highlights improvements to public spaces, such as new carpeting and updated signage that accurately reflects current venues. New additions include the Silver Screen Beastro, a family-oriented immersive dining and movie venue, and Horizon Park, an outdoor recreational space on the top deck featuring artificial grass and games. The creator offers a critical perspective on Horizon Park, noting a lack of loungers and noisy sun shades. Other significant changes include the expansion of the Vibe Beach Club and the installation of thick glass walls in the casino to separate smoking and non-smoking areas, which also benefits the nearby Shanghai's noodle bar. Dining changes involve the expansion of Cagney's steakhouse, the removal of Maderno and Ocean Blue, and the introduction of the Greek-inspired Palomar. Finally, the creator notes the removal of the waterfront gelato shop and concludes that while the ship feels refreshed, the overall cruising experience remains consistent with previous voyages.
