Cabin 12582 · MSC World America

Cabin 12582 is a Deluxe Interior on Deck 12 of MSC World America, 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.

The nearest is the midship lift bank, and that is 13 cabins away down the corridor. That buys you quiet. It also means a proper walk with your bags on embarkation day. We give it 9 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about it is 4 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Of the 148 cabin positions on Deck 12, this is the 78th from forward. You are about as central as the corridor gets, so it is a similar walk whichever way you turn out of your door.

The Deluxe Interior grade runs 151-183 square feet. No window, which makes it the darkest and cheapest room on board and, for a lot of people, the best sleep they get all week. If waking to daylight matters to you, an ocean view is the smallest step up.

Against the rest of the ship it is as quiet as anything on board and as steady in a swell as any cabin on the ship. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
