Cabin 14559 · MSC World America

Cabin 14559 is a Deluxe Interior on Deck 14 of MSC World America, and it sits forward of midship. There is some movement here, more than midship and a good deal less than the ends. Most people never think about it. We score it 8 out of 10 for steadiness.

Nothing sits close by: it is 20 cabins to the forward port lift bank, the nearest thing of its kind. That buys you quiet. It also means a proper walk with your bags on embarkation day. Quiet comes out at 8 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about it is 3 out of 10, so add a few minutes to everywhere you go.

Counting from the bow, it is the 95th cabin position of 191 along Deck 14. 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 Interior gives you 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 steadier in a swell than 86 per cent of them and further from the action than most. It suits light sleepers and travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who finds long corridors and stairs hard work.
