This morning, I obtained an inquiry from a member of the family of one of many passengers on Oceania’s Nautica seeing data concerning what is occurring on this cruise ship.
The ship was apparently “circling” for hours final night time and I used to be knowledgeable that tape was subsequently positioned on one of many ship’s decks. Turkish police was apparently on board the ship now, based on one of many passengers.
Man overboard? Anybody have information concerning what is going on on aboard Oceania’s Nautica now? #Cruise ship was beforehand “circling” for hours (an obvious search and rescue?) & tape is now on one of many decks. Turkish police on board the ship now . . . (per one of many passengers). pic.twitter.com/kvGcEB0gDz

Pictures per crusemapper.com of ship’s AIS signifies that the Nautica performed what seems to be search and rescue final night time whereas approaching Turkey. An individual commenting on Fb acknowledged:
“An individual has gone overboard on our ship… Oceania Nautica. Off the coast of Turkey. We’re stopped and have been looking out since final night time….. simply shocked.”
The cruise line, as ordinary, has not issued a public assertion concerning what occurred. There isn’t a public data whether or not the lacking individual was a visitor or a crew member. We anticipate receiving further data from passengers or crew on the ship.
