Woman found floating in sea after going overboard from Royal Caribbean ship

A 44-year-old Salvadoran woman was rescued after spending 20 hours adrift in the Ionian Sea following an overboard incident from the Royal Caribbean cruise ship Odyssey of the Seas. She was found clinging to a lifebuoy by the cargo ship MSC Rossella III, which assisted in locating her. According to the Hellenic Coast Guard, the woman stated she jumped off the ship because she 'wanted to disembark.' After being pulled to safety, she was taken to a hospital in Katakolo for a psychiatric evaluation. This incident echoes a similar case from last year involving another Royal Caribbean passenger who jumped overboard in Puerto Rico to avoid gambling debt.

A 44-year-old Salvadoran woman was rescued 20 hours after falling overboard from a Royal Caribbean cruise ship near the Greek island of Zakynthos. She was found clinging to a lifebuoy in the Ionian Sea by the cargo ship MSC Rossella III, which alerted Greek authorities. A Coast Guard team then pulled her to safety. The woman, identified as Jey Gonzalez-Diaz, was traveling aboard the Odyssey of the Seas when she fell into the water on Saturday. According to Greek officials, she told rescuers she had jumped off the ship because she "wanted to disembark." She was later taken to the port of Katakolo and transported to a local hospital, where a prosecutor ordered a psychiatric evaluation. Greek authorities deployed a Coast Guard vessel and a military helicopter to conduct the search. The woman’s condition following the rescue was not immediately disclosed. Royal Caribbean has not yet commented on the incident. This follows a similar case last year involving a man who jumped off another Royal Caribbean ship in Puerto Rico to avoid paying gambling debts.
