Carnival Cruise Lines - Live TV Onboard?

Question

My wife and I are going on a Carnical Cruise (Imagination) in mid-Janaury, and we are both concerned about missing the Chicago Bears (or other NFL playoff games!) while on the ship. Does the ship have a Sports Book, or Sports Bars that will carry these games, or is this not an option on a cruise ship? I assumed they could do this with satellite technologies and such, but my buddy who went on a cruise 5 years ago insists I will miss any games broadcast while out to sea.

Answer 1

depends on where the ship is at not all geographical locations offer the same sattelite reception signal for the us sports sats anything south of 20 deg latitude in the carribean will be difficult for the sats you want but check with cruise line

Answer 2

Yes there will be a sports bar onboard. You won't miss your games unless you have something else fun going on at the time. There is a lot to do on a cruise ship you know. Have a great time! Go Bears!
