Cabin 9083 · MSC World America

Cabin 9083 is a Deluxe Balcony on Deck 9 of MSC World America, and it sits forward 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.

It is 5 cabins along the corridor to the forward port lift bank. Close enough to be useful, far enough that it should not keep you awake. 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 42nd cabin position of 148 along Deck 9.

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 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.

Scored by Cruise Ship Wiki using model v1.8, from the position of this cabin relative to every public space on the ship. Each part is out of 10.
