The Norwegian Escape started sailing in 2015 . Former names: none. The Norwegian Escape is registered in Nassau, Bahamas. The Norwegian Escape has 2174 cabins. 72 percent of the staterooms on board have balconies.

You can expect between 4348 to 5218 passengers on a typical sailing. This means that at the higher number (usually peak and holiday sailings) Norwegian Escape has a space ratio of 31.5 . (A space ratio less than 33 means that you may find the ship crowded in areas. A space ratio greater than 39 means that there should be plenty of space for each passenger.) When this ship isn't sailing at capacity the space ratio can be as good as 37.9.

The Norwegian Escape has 1731 crew members on board. There are 3 passengers for every crew member on board. There are no self serve laundromats on this cruise ship.

There are 20 decks on this ship. The highest deck number is 20. The number of decks with passenger cabins is 12.

The following ships share the same class as this ship. This means the basic design and layout of the ship is the same. For the most part the cabins will be identical among these ships, but may be decorated differently.

The Norwegian Escape is a larger version of the Breakaway class of ships. It features one more deck of cabins, more public space including a larger more open main pool area.

NCL also added two hot tubs to the public sun deck on the top forward part of the ship.

Stateroom (cabin) categories on this deck

Deluxe Owners Suite H2

Owner Suite H3

2-Bedroom Family Villa H4

Courtyard Penthouse H5

The cruise line seperates the different categories (Inside, Oceanview, Balcony) into subcategories. The only difference in the subcategories is usually location on the ship. The detail above shows subcategory color, category name, and subcategory name. For detailed information, mouse over a cabin on the deck plans and a pop up window will appear. You will find diagrams, pictures and information about that cabin category including square footage and features.

Norwegian uses a two digit code for its categories. The primary categories are S=Suite, M=Mini Suites, B=Balconies, O=Oceanview, I=Inside, and T=Studio. If the letter is followed by a number it is a specialty cabin. With 1 being the most desired location. For example B1 is a aft-facing balcony. If it is followed by a letter it is a standard cabin with A being the most desired location.

As example a Mini Suite MA is in a more desired location than a Mini Suite MB.
