Male passenger jumped over board, woman died while snorkeling
A search was launched after a passenger went overboard from the ' Carnival Splendor' near Brisbane, while the ship was sailing from Moreton Island towards Sydney. The vessel was on a four-day, round-trip sailing set to return on April 19. The man in his 70s fell from the ship about 30 kilometres northeast of Moreton Island on the night of April 17, 2026, after he apparently climbed over the safety railing and jumped. The man was travelling with family who alerted the ship’s crew about a missing person. A review of the CCTV footage confirmed the action. The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) began an intensive air and sea search involving multiple assets,” ollowing the initial report. The AMSA coordinated the SAR operation and has tasked its Cairns and Melbourne-based Challenger jets, five rescue helicopters from around the metropolitan Brisbane area, and six surface vessels into the area, with Queensland Police assisting the AMSA with the operation. Carnival assisted authorities in their investigation upon the ship’s return to Sydney. Carnival’s Care Team was supporting the guest’s family. The 'Carnival Splendor' left the area on April 19 at around 3 p.m. LT and arrived in Sydney around 6 p.m. A text from Carnival sent to passengers on the subsequent Splendor sailing departing April 19 said that check-in and embarkation for the cruise would be delayed. A 67-year-old Australian woman of the same ship had died while snorkelling off Moreton Island on April 17. The Tasmanian woman was found unresponsive in the water on the morning, just hours before the man went overboard. Attempts were made to revive her but she was pronounced dead at the scene. There were no suggestions that the two events are in any way connected. The Queensland Police confirmed on April 21 that they had suspended the search, which had deployed multiple emergency services to try locate the man.
