Satellite TV Comes to Oceania!

Hate to miss your favorite program and still don't have a DVR or TiVo? Your team playing a major sporting event? Oceania has you covered! Furthering their committment for a complete passenger experience, Oceania has signed an agreement with Wave Entertainment Network (a division of SeaMobile Enterprises) for Satellite TV services for their fleet.

Encompassing, cable, satellite and broadcast networks, audio content, video-on-demand, adult programming, special events, and other video content typically offered via multi-channel platforms, the Wave Entertainment platform uses a combination of satellite technology delivered by SeaMobile's Maritime Telecommunications Network (MTN) and caching technology that allows viewers to experience live events and network programming in time slots they are accustomed to seeing. The store-and-forward feature ensures cruisers won't miss their favorite programs during their cruise. It'll be like your personal DVR in your cabin!

Oceania Insignia will be the first ship in the line to receive the full-feature system, followed by Nautica and Regatta later this year.

There goes your husband's excuse not to sail during the "big game."
