mllewis48 Posted January 20, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Can anyone confirm that FOX is still on HAL ships, it was on our last Nieuw Amsterdam cruise in November. We enjoy keeping up to date on news while in our stateroom. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krazy Kruizers Posted January 20, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I don't think you have to worry about HAL giving up Fox anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Himself Posted January 20, 2011 #9 Share Posted January 20, 2011 This must be something new. I have never heard of Fox being on HAL ships before. I am not complaining, just pleasently surprised. "Let, let not your heart be troubled..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peaches from georgia Posted January 21, 2011 #13 Share Posted January 21, 2011 On Demand movies are also available on some cruiselines' tv systems rather than having to mess with dvd's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckysadie Posted January 21, 2011 #14 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I hope they have something besides FOX News. If not, I will have to be news-free for my cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mexico5 Posted January 21, 2011 #15 Share Posted January 21, 2011 They also have CNN, but we don't watch that...it's nice to have a choice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare TiogaCruiser Posted January 21, 2011 #16 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Just curious- did they drop NYTimes? I don't remember seeing or tossing any newspaperettes out in august. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelmac Posted January 21, 2011 #17 Share Posted January 21, 2011 They also have CNN, but we don't watch that...it's nice to have a choice! I think they have CNN International?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtl513 Posted January 21, 2011 #18 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Just curious- did they drop NYTimes? I don't remember seeing or tossing any newspaperettes out in august.We had them on the Nieuw A in Sep/Oct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PirateShark Posted January 21, 2011 #19 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'd rather they have interactive TV (i.e. to review your on board account) than either CNNI or FOX. JMHO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherInFlorida Posted January 21, 2011 #20 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Best news I've had in a long time. I was so excited that Celebrity carried Fox News on our last cruise. I didn't know HAL had started carrying it. Between that and their great itineraries we just may be back on HAL sooner than I thought!!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trvldog Posted January 21, 2011 #21 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'd rather they have interactive TV (i.e. to review your on board account) I would love this also, I wonder if it because people would watch more on what they spent?? I know I probably would :) I alway think dang how did all those little things add up to this!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mexico5 Posted January 21, 2011 #22 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I think they have CNN International?? No, I went through all the channels and it was the US CNN...not International. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted January 21, 2011 #23 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Just curious- did they drop NYTimes? I don't remember seeing or tossing any newspaperettes out in august. They still deliver the New York Times At Sea daily. We have gotten one on every cruise, every HAL ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RevNeal Posted January 21, 2011 #24 Share Posted January 21, 2011 No, I went through all the channels and it was the US CNN...not International. It depends upon where you are on the planet and what satellites they can home in on from the ship. In Europe and South America it's CNN International. In North America is usually CNN-US (unless the angle is wrong). Personally, I see great value in multiple sources of information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willsot Posted January 21, 2011 #25 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Wondered how long it would take to regress into politics. When we were on the Prinsendam in Europe we had CNN International and Al Jazeera English but I don't recall having Fox, which I'm guessing would be most pleasing to some.
