The Breakaway class is a class of cruise ships owned and operated by Norwegian Cruise Line, Cruise Saudi (Aroya Cruises), and Resorts World Cruises. This class is an original design, and has two sub-classes. Although most ships of the class have subtle changes between one another, they all have the same general design. The first ship of the class, Norwegian Breakaway, launched in 2013.[1][2]
