SRF Posted September 10, 2017 #29 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Thanks. I was sure hoping for a different answer. Do you by chance know the name of the Diamond Concierge and Suite Concierge? Suite Concierge was Rahul. I heard that Frances was Diamond Concierge, but am not sure. I know Frances from a previous cruise, and went down a couple of times to say Hi, but never caught him.

I think HLN is only shown in Ports or near ports. I could be wrong. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted September 10, 2017 #36 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Yes. Others have reported the same. I wonder if it is because where she is ported?? I doubt the port has anything to do with it. I suspect they just haven't got round to it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATC cruiser Posted September 10, 2017 #38 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Maybe if the ships have FOX News more people will stay in their cabin and watch it. That way there will be less people in the Diamond lounge. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think that all RCI cruise ships will at some time in the near future have the Fox News Channel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milwaukee Eight Posted September 10, 2017 Author #40 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Do you think that all RCI cruise ships will at some time in the near future have the Fox News Channel? According to Michael Bailey on last Presidential Cruise, all ships should have had FNC by now. It's has been a slower roll out than many of us had hoped.

Clarea Posted September 10, 2017 #42 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Do you think that all RCI cruise ships will at some time in the near future have the Fox News Channel? Yes, my understanding was that the cruise line made a deal for all their ships to have the channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cltnccruisers Posted September 10, 2017 #43 Share Posted September 10, 2017 Not just Fox I hope. Last year on FOS we had only CNN. More options are always better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milwaukee Eight Posted September 10, 2017 Author #44 Share Posted September 10, 2017 At home, I watch both CNN and FNC. I like to get both sides of an issue. Nothing is wrong with CNN, if it is the USA version (for those cruise ships that depart from USA ports). I do not like the CNN International version, in that there is limited USA news during the few times in the evening when I watch TV during a cruise. Same here. CNN International is terrible to us.

nelblu Posted September 12, 2017 #50 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Not just Fox I hope. Last year on FOS we had only CNN. More options are always better. On Brilliance Aug. 29th we were stuck with CNN & BBC. Thank God, a second BBC channel had detective shows with no commercials, eg: Death in Paradise, Father Brown, etc. that I love in the US and shown on public stations.
