Cabin 18501 · MSC World America

Cabin 18501 is a Deluxe Interior on Deck 18 of MSC World America. You are far forward. This is a long way from the pivot, so a swell reaches you before it reaches anyone midship. Right up in the bow, a head sea can send a shudder through the hull that midship guests never feel at all. We score it 4 out of 10 for steadiness.

Top Sail Lounge sits on the deck above, 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 6 out of 10, roughly par for this ship. For getting about, 6 out of 10.

Of the 37 cabin positions on Deck 18, this is the 3rd from forward. That puts you right at the forward end of the run, where the corridor stops and the footfall dies away. You share Deck 18 with Botanic Garden Pool, La Plage, Il Mercato Buffet (port) and Il Mercato Buffet (starboard). There are 54 cabins along this deck, so the corridor is short and rarely busy.

The Deluxe Interior grade runs 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 noisier than three quarters of the 2,615 cabins on board and livelier in a swell than most of them. It is a poor fit for anyone who wakes when a door closes and anyone who feels motion badly.
