A sixty-six (66) year-old passenger was reported overboard from the Allure of the Seas cruise ship north of Nassau, Bahamas final night time.
Around 9:40 p.m. final night time, passengers reported listening to an “Oscar-Oscar-Oscar” announcement. A rescue craft was reportedly deployed to seek for the lacking girl. The Allure used search lights on the darkish waters to assist within the search. Another Royal Caribbean cruise ship, the Utopia of the Seas (mistakenly known as the Icon of the Seas by one passenger) aided within the search.
I’ve seen no on-line accounts from anybody who truly witnessed the individual going into the water. Most postings on social media and information accounts confer with the individual “falling” from the ship however there are not any clear descriptions whether or not she by chance went overboard or deliberately jumped.
The ship had a lot of Taylor Swift followers aboard. There have been numerous folks live-streaming after the visitor went overboard.
According to cruse professional Dr. Ross Klein, that is the 418th individual to go overboard since 2000.
