What’s on cabin TV?

[mlbcruiser]

We haven’t been on a carnival cruise in several years. Wondering what they show on the TVs in the cabins now. I assume there is an international news channel, and I’m wondering about free movies and whether the port talks, shows an audience participation games are shown on the TV? Can you book shore excursions via the TV?

 

Thanks for any info!

All of the above. If you’re leaving from the states usually local USA news, your cabin charges and many movies both free and ppv.

Back when you cruised some years ago Carnival had the 4 major networks thru a local U.S. broadcast, most recently Miami as well as movies. Thanks to price pressure that is all gone now. The TV selection is very limited and is all Turner network originated programs, TNT, TBS, CNN etc.

A whole lotta nothing. The best movie we found was playing on the Spanish network (played in English) Way too much CNN for me and after a while all the Carnival port previews got old.

Sorry to hear it but I feared such. It’s not that we hang around in our cabin that much, but once in a while, especially on a Longer cruise or when waiting for someone or something, it’s nice to watch a little TV.

Thanks for responding.

No local stations anymore. CNN news stations only, ship stations, Turner stations

Not much anymore.....not even good "news" stations!!

This works for me. I watch way too much tv at home. It will be nice to completely unplug. No tv, no internet for us either. Peace.

Yep, there is very little on TV. Last time, the only thing we found remotely interesting was in Spanish. The port talks and such are on there though. And you can download the carnival hub app on your phone. It's a much more user friendly option for booking excursions, checking the fun times, weather, etc.

TV ? Not ship anymore .I guess Carnival wants their customers out of their cabin spending money .

Just off Horizon. They had 3 CNN, HLN, TNT, TBS? And TCM. The other channelswere Carnival channels. The 3 “T” channels were in English, but all the commercials were in Spanish.

Not much. Turned the TV off when he entered the cabin and didn't turn it back on for the rest of our 14 night cruise. Too many better things to do on the ship and we caught up on the news when we got home.

I am not a TV watcher but I like to leave it on at night for noise and light. I remember that there was a channel that just played movies.....not ones you had to pay for....it may have been the movies they were showing that week as dive in movies....they just ran continously
