NCAA March Madness on Ship?

[hmooncruiser]

Does anybody know anything about watching college basketball on HAL ships during March Madness? I was on an RCL 4 years ago and the only ESPN was an international channel that showed mostly soccer. Does the Sports Bar aboard the Eurodam have a more extensive channel line-up like most sports bars?

 

Thanks.

While we were on the Westerdam in January they showed bowl games - seems to me it was the National Championship - anyway made a big deal about it with viewing in the Crows Nest special drink prices etc. think the coverage is much better than it used to be.

Cabin TVs only get ESPN International. Sports bar varies, don't know about March Madness specifically.

We always cruise during March madness. My teenagers always have their brackets in hand. We have always had good luck in finding the games on TV. The last two years we have sailed Costa and NCL tho. My boys will be quite upset if they can't see their Jayhawks!

Don't want to be a spoilsport but you cannot be sure if HAL purchased the satellite feed for the tournament. I guess you could call Seattle and ask but depending on where you are sailing, there could be weather interference that prohibits the feed. Just want you to know as my children have been disappointed before. However, they always managed to find something equally interesting to occupy themselves!
