Virgin Cabin TV offerings

[Polydonald]

I think I read somewhere that the in-cabin movie offerings were very similar to what one might find on an inflight entertainment system. That makes sense. What's the situation with broadcast offerings for news and sports? Are there shipboard channels and what do they offer on those?  Is it different channel offerings in the Med vs. Caribbean? Also, if you have media on your laptop can you play it on the cabin TV with a USB or HDMI cable? Any other helpful hints when it comes to the in-cabin TV would be welcome.

I saw a couple of news channels, ESPN and ESPN2.  The reception on ESPN was spotty.  

Movie selection was decent

We only found the live TV options near the end of our back to back!

 

It was quite limited, ESPN, BBC World News and maybe CNN(or MSNBC).

You are correct as far as it being similar to in-flight movie options. Some new, some classics. Some tv shows. 
 

they have a channel I believe it’s called “virgin presents” under the “live” section of entertainment. That is where we found live nfl games. They have 2 espn channels but I believe it was Europe because it always seemed to be soccer or cricket.   
 

but overall not a bad selection. They also show live sports in the arcade/snack area.

We found the movie options to be quite good, very similar to the Amazon Prime free offerings.
