Cabin 9133 · MSC World America

Cabin 9133 is a Premium Balcony Aurea on Deck 9 of MSC World America. You are 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.

Eataly sits on the deck below, roughly 1 cabin along the ship from you. A deck between you takes most of the noise out of it, and it is a short trip when you want it. Quiet comes out at 7 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Of the 148 cabin positions on Deck 9, this is the 72nd 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 Premium Balcony Aurea grade runs 183 square feet. The balcony adds another 172 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 steadier in a swell than 86 per cent of them. It suits travellers prone to seasickness. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes.
