metlcrash Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 We are cruising on Jan 16 through Jan 24. There are NFL playoffs on Jan 16 and 17. It's our first cruise. Will we be able to see the NFL games somewhere on the boat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galveston Steve Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 On a recent cruise on Liberty of the Seas they showed several games, even though it was just the regular season. They showed Thursday night, Sunday night, and Monday night NFL games on the big screen by the pool, which was a nice experience. I would think the playoff games would certainly be shown somewhere on the ship, but it does depend on what they can receive via satellite. I would check with guest services when you get on board and make sure they know people want to watch the games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 I would expect to have somewhere onboard showing the games. Check the Cruise Compass or ask Guest Services. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jticarruthers Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Freedom class usually show the games at the "on air" bar down by the ice rink and then the big screen by the pool if its a "big" game. Selection is limited but they typically have the "night" games and the "game of the week" on Sunday afternoon at the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobroo Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 I've been on board for both playoff games and for the Super Bowl. Yes, all the games will be televised--somewhere. We've watched them and it is quite fun, because there will be many people interested rooting for either team. It's a good party. One note, and I can not for the life of me understand this; but these games will be televised onboard --but without commercials shown. In English, and with the normal announcers. During commercial breaks it's just a blank screen <scratches head>. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLA Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 I cruised in January last year, and can also confirm that the games were readily available on the ship. It was fun to watch the Bengals poolside! Also, on Enchantment in Oct, they had games playing through the day in Boleros for anyone who wanted to see them. I'd have to imagine that the games would be playing SOMEWHERE on any of the ships. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglesfaninfl Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 We were on Vision last year during the playoffs and the games were all available everywhere on board; pool, bars etc. You could also view them on the TV in your stateroom.

michelle Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 I have always been able to find someplace on the ship for Football games and I'm sure they will list it in the Navigator or like Matt said Guest services should have an idea! Have a great cruise Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocLC Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Just off the Liberty and the games were shown pool side, in the On Air Club, and were also on the stateroom TV. While this may vary for your cruise, I'm confident you'll be able to find the game on somewhere. Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
