Cabin 12227 · MSC World America

Cabin 12227 is a Deluxe Balcony on Deck 12 of MSC World America, well aft. Out at this end you feel the sea. In rough water the movement here is noticeably stronger. We score it 6 out of 10 for steadiness.

Nothing sits close by: it is 9 cabins to the aft 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. We give it 9 out of 10 for quiet, which is about as peaceful as this ship gets. For getting about, 5 out of 10.

Counting from the bow, it is the 118th cabin position of 148 along Deck 12.

A Deluxe Balcony gives you 161-183 square feet. The balcony adds another 32-65 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. It suits light sleepers.
