Cabin 10126 · MSC World America

Cabin 10126 is a Deluxe Balcony on Deck 10 of MSC World America. You are midship. That is about as close to the ship's pivot point as you can get, and in a swell you will feel it less here than anywhere else on board. We score it 9 out of 10 for steadiness, which puts it among the calmest rooms on the ship.

On the ship's plan The Loft Comedy + Live Music is two decks down, about 3 cabins along from you. A deck between you takes most of the noise out of it, and it is a short trip when you want it. Quiet comes out at 7 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about it is 4 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Counting from the bow, it is the 67th cabin position of 166 along Deck 10. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

A Deluxe Balcony gives you 161-183 square feet. The balcony adds another 32-65 on top of that. A balcony buys you outside space of your own and, on sea days, somewhere to sit that is not the pool deck. It is the step up most people make, and the one they find hardest to give up again.

Against the rest of the ship it is as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship. It suits travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes and anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
