New York-Inspired Cruise Ships

The Norwegian Breakaway Embodies a Big Apple Flair

The Norwegian Breakaway pays homage to its home port for the next year by embracing a New York City theme. Through its 'The Best of NYC Sails to Sea' campaign, it will feature the best the city has to offer, ensuring that guests aboard the cruise ship won't feel homesick while traveling the seas.

In particular, the Norwegian Breakaway focuses on New York food staples including three Sabrett hot dog carts and a seafood restaurant operated by famous New York chef Geoffrey Zakarian. To complete the transition, the outer shell of the Norwegian Breakaway cruise ship features the work of artist Peter Max, who illustrated a colorful New York Skyline including the Statue of Liberty.
