The Carnival Cruise Line ship was near Catalina Island during a short cruise from Long Beach, California.<\/p>\n
According to news reports<\/a>, the passenger fell from her stateroom balcony and landed on a deck below (deck 5). Her family, who were traveling with her, quickly alerted the crew.<\/p>\n Carnival confirmed the incident and said all appropriate authorities were notified. Law enforcement was expected to board the ship at Catalina Island to investigate.<\/p>\n The company did not release the woman\u2019s name, and it\u2019s still unclear exactly how or why the fall happened.<\/p>\n In a statement, Carnival said: \u201cCarnival\u2019s Care Team is supporting the guest\u2019s family, and our thoughts and prayers are with them and their loved one.\u201d<\/p>\n Passenger reports shared on social media and Reddit described the incident happening around 2 AM, with some mentioning a young woman falling from a high deck area (possibly the Serenity lounge) to a lower deck.<\/p>\n They also stated that police and other officials were on board.<\/p>\n Carnival Firenze is currently on a 4-day sailing from Long Beach that is scheduled to visit Ensenada on April 28 before returning to its homeport in California.<\/p>\n Cruise ship falls like this are rare, and there are usually other factors at play. Investigations are standard in these cases, and this is still a developing story. More details to come as the investigation continues.<\/p>\n This news comes just one day after a search was suspended for the crew member<\/a> of Norwegian Breakaway who had gone overboard as the ship was heading back to Boston from Bermuda.<\/p>\n Get the latest cruise news, tips, and deals sent straight to your inbox with our free newsletter: Sign Up Now<\/a> <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A woman has died after reportedly falling from a balcony on Carnival Firenze on Monday morning, April 27,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":99019,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[131,133,132],"class_list":["post-289132","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-long-beach","tag-long-beach","tag-long-beach-headlines","tag-long-beach-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/289132","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=289132"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/289132\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/99019"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=289132"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=289132"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=289132"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
