Norwegian Escape deck plans

Norwegian Escape (2015-built) is the first of the four Breakaway Plus-class Norwegian Cruise Line ships, followed by the sisterships Norwegian Joy (2017), Norwegian Bliss (2018), and Norwegian Encore (2019).

The Norwegian Escape cruise ship deck plan shows a total of 2174 staterooms (15 types across 42 categories) for 4266 passengers (maximum capacity 5218), served by 1730 crew. The vessel has 20 decks (16 accessible to passengers, 12 with cabins), 29 dining options (9 complimentary), 22 lounges and bars, 3 swimming pools, 9 Jacuzzis (outdoor whirlpools), 5 waterslides, and 16 elevators.

Below is a concise review of the ship’s special features and differences compared to the Breakaway-class ships:

• Total decks: 20 (15 passenger-accessible), with one additional cabin deck compared to Breakaway-class vessels.
• An expanded “The Haven” suite complex, offering more deluxe accommodations by adding a second deck (Decks 17 and 18, both keycard-access only). This luxury enclave features an open-air terrace with a private restaurant for Haven Suite guests. The enlarged Courtyard Villa area includes a retractable glass roof, its own pool with two whirlpools, spa treatment rooms, sauna, and a private sundeck.
• Studio cabins for solo travelers are located on three decks (10, 11, and 12) — one more deck than on Breakaway-class ships — with the Studio Lounge centrally located on Deck 11.
• Deck 5 has approximately 100 fewer cabins, providing ~25% more space for public venues on that deck. Additional public spaces are also added on Deck 8.
• Deck 18 has 18 fewer cabins, creating additional public areas.
• Improved energy efficiency through advanced seawater scrubbing technology.
