Cabin 16166 · MSC World America

Cabin 16166 is a Deluxe Balcony Aurea on Deck 16 of MSC World America. You are aft of midship. You are far enough from the middle to notice a swell, but nowhere near the worst of it. We score it 7 out of 10 for steadiness.

You are all but on top of the panoramic lift bank, about 1 cabin away. Nothing on board is a shorter walk. The price is footsteps past your door and the lift chiming at odd hours. Quiet comes out at 7 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 8 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 108th cabin position of 164 along Deck 16.

A Deluxe Balcony Aurea gives you 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 better placed for getting around than 95 per cent of them. It suits families running back to the cabin several times a day. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
