Cabin 14168 · MSC World America

Cabin 14168 is a Deluxe Balcony Aurea on Deck 14 of MSC World America. You are midship. You are near the middle of the hull, where the ship does the least moving. In rough water that matters more than most people expect. We score it 8 out of 10 for steadiness.

You are 6 cabins from the midship lift bank. Close enough to be useful, far enough that it should not keep you awake. We give it 9 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 6 out of 10.

Of the 191 cabin positions on Deck 14, this is the 128th from forward.

The Deluxe Balcony Aurea grade runs 140-205 square feet. The balcony adds another 32-97 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 quiet as anything on board and steadier in a swell than 86 per cent of them. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness.
