The US Coast Guard is searching for an Australian man who reportedly fell overboard from the Royal Caribbean ship Quantum of the Seas while traveling in the Pacific Ocean to Hawaii. The search resumed on Thursday after being suspended on Wednesday. The cruise ship has been at sea for 15 days and is expected to dock in Hawaii on Friday.
A passenger on Royal Caribbean International's Quantum of the Seas ship went overboard during a trans-Pacific sailing. The ship's crew immediately launched a search and rescue operation and is working closely with local authorities. This incident follows other recent overboard incidents on cruise ships. Cruise ships have safeguards to prevent passengers from going overboard, and are required to have rails that are "located not less than 42 inches above the cabin deck."
