Cabin 14047 · MSC World America

Cabin 14047 is an Infinite Ocean View Aurea on Deck 14 of MSC World America, far forward. Out at this end you feel the sea. In rough water the movement here is noticeably stronger. Right up in the bow, a head sea can send a shudder through the hull that midship guests never feel at all. We score it 5 out of 10 for steadiness.

The nearest is the forward port lift bank, and that is 11 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 191 cabin positions on Deck 14, this is the 23rd from forward.

The Infinite Ocean View Aurea grade runs 215 square feet. You get daylight and a sense of where you are without paying balcony money. The window does not open, so it is the view but not the air.

Against the rest of the ship it is as quiet as anything on board. It suits light sleepers. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
