A passenger travelling on the Ruby Princess ship disappeared and was nowhere to be seen when the vessel returned to the US, with officials ruling it as a man overboard incident
A passenger travelling on a Princess Cruise cruise ship is believed to have fallen overboard, sparking a major search.
Princess Cruises said it "ruled out other possibilities" and is treating the passenger's disappearance as a man overboard incident after company officials extensively reviewed CCTV footage, and the ship was searched several times without success. It is believed he disappeared in the early morning hours before the ship docked.
Hunter Schnabel of the Coast Guard said: "What information we have to go off kind of does make it a little more difficult. To search a wide area of the ocean does take a lot of time and there is a lot that goes into that." In August, a young British man fell overboard on a cruise ship in the Adriatic Sea, sparking a desperate search. Croatian authorities said a passenger from the Royal Caribbean 's Explorer of the Seas ship went missing in the early hours on Friday, August 9.
