Cruise Passenger Jumps Off Royal Caribbean Ship
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
Doug Parker reports on several developments within the cruise industry for April 5th. The primary story involves the US Coast Guard conducting a search and rescue operation for a 20 year old man who went overboard from the Royal Caribbean ship Liberty of the Seas. The incident occurred approximately 57 miles off the coast of the Bahamas on a Thursday morning. While the ship's crew initiated an immediate search, the US Coast Guard has since taken over the operation. Royal Caribbean stated they are supporting the family of the guest while maintaining privacy regarding specific details. Additionally, the report covers the status of the Port of Baltimore, where the US Army Corps of Engineers has established a tentative timeline to open a temporary channel by the end of April. This channel will accommodate vessels up to 280 feet wide. The news also highlights propulsion issues affecting Royal Caribbean's Brilliance of the Seas in Sydney, which resulted in a postponed sailing. Finally, the segment notes that cruise line stocks for Carnival Corporation, Royal Caribbean, and Norwegian all experienced declines on Thursday.
