Castaway24 Posted April 30, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 30, 2016 We are booked on Oceana Italian cruise 18th May for one week. On Sat 21st May it's Cup Final and I've booked us a day trip to Capri! Husband desperately wants to watch the Cup Final - it's KO is 6.30pm UK time I think so we should be back on board ship by then. Question is - will Oceana show the cup final on their TVs?

Saltybaltiholty Posted April 30, 2016 #2 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Kick Off is 17:30 UK time so should be 18:30 your time in Capri. I'd be very surprised if it isn't shown, all that would stop it would be the lack of a signal to the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkpon Posted April 30, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 30, 2016 On the Britannia last month they showed all the Premier League games live in the cabins and in Brodie's pub. I would think it will be the same on Oceana with the FA Cup final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tartanexile81 Posted April 30, 2016 #4 Share Posted April 30, 2016 On Oceana recently they showed several premier league matches live in Winners and on your cabin each weekend. They can only show the matches their provider is covering but given the world-wide interest in English football I'd say it's 99% sure it will be shown as it's the sort of match that's always shown.

P&O show sports provided by the Sports24 broadcaster. This their website and at the moment their schedule goes up to May 20. Maybe have look a bit nearer to the time. http://www.sport24-tv.com/Schedule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsrdsrdsr Posted April 30, 2016 #6 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I don't know who provides their feed, but a possible downer is that most Premier League games are on Sky Sports; FA Cup is on BT. Having one contract doesn't guarantee they have the other. Overseas feeds work differently from UK, though, so you'll probably be OK. What do P&O say? Or didn't they answer?

tokyo Posted May 1, 2016 #7 Share Posted May 1, 2016 The BBC are also showing it. As long as there is a signal I would expect you to be able to see it some where on the ship. I am delighted to say that I don't have your problem. I will be at Wembley on the 21st. Red Army. :D BTW Have a cracking cruise. I have to wait till July for my next cruise.

gadabout60 Posted May 1, 2016 #8 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I will be on Celebrity Constellation in Slovenia that day and am hoping they - or maybe on shore - I can see the Scottish cup final. Might be a tougher one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
