The news was reported by Jim Walker from Cruise Law News saying that several passengers reported constant announcements in the morning from the ship’s PA system for the crew member to report to the galley. Several crew members on board have also confirmed the incident. According to the news the crew member was reported missing the following day after his colleagues found out that he didn’t report on duty.

Last year there have been several reports of crew overboards. It is important to mention that in most cases (as you can see below) the missing crew members are reported after they fail to show on duty the following day. There are many factors that can play adverse effect on crewmembers and they don’t have to be new to the ship to experience them. Depression, family illness or death, problems at home, shipboard emergency, bad roommate, horrible new boss, cheating, disciplinary action, workplace stress, mobbing by the supervisor, loneliness, alcohol, weight gain/loss, are just a few of the situations that can occur onboard a ship that can throw a crewmember’s mental state off balance and cause them to behave irrationally. There are also cases of mysterious disappearance such as the one of the Brazilian crew member Simone Souza Scheuer who went overboard after she had a disagreement with her boss and ended a two-year relationship with a crew member. Prosecutor's office Italy has opened an investigation for murder in connection with her disappearance.
