They have a lot of entertainment options that seemed fun but the seating in the the theater is horribly uncomfortable. The food was okay, they seemed more interested in getting people to eat at the specialty restaurants.

You must take a pillow from your cabin to sit on for the shows

I also just got off Sunday. Food all depends on where you eat of course the specialty dining food was better that's why its called specialty. I agree the theater sides were very uncomfortable. All in all I think they do a good job.

If you sit in the first 7 rows, the seats are terrible. Rock of ages was 90 minutes, and it felt line hell in the last 40 minutes. Food was good everywhere. Of course prese ration and selections of certain items was better in specialty rstaurants, but you'll be fine in free ones.

Just got off breakaway sunday. Theatre seats were definitely not comfortable. I also think food was just ok. Was on same ship last year and the difference in food quality is large. All in all a nice cruise. Always going to have issues but you make the best of it. Vacation is vacation. Enjoy...

Just got off Breakaway this morning. I didn't think they were pushing people to try the speciality dining. We ate in either Taste or Savor and had no problems.

I couldn't sit in them; had to sit on other chairs in the back near the exit. Very poor design.

Shows were good and yes the seats did get uncomfortable after a while.
