CELEBRITY CRUISES REPORTS MISSING GUEST ON CENTURY
MIAMI – November 2, 2006 – Celebrity Cruises has reported that a 73-year old British citizen, a man traveling alone on Celebrity Century, is missing. A crew member reported his absence Nov. 1, after it appeared he had not used his cabin. On learning of the situation, the ship’s captain immediately began a ship search, reversed course to retrace the ship’s path, and began making public announcements. Century had left Madeira, Portugal, Nov. 1, and ship-security records indicate the guest did not disembark in port.
