An elderly cruise passenger died after her mobility scooter plunged off a pier in the Bahamas<\/a> \u2014 marking the third death at Carnival Cruise Line’s Celebration Key in less than a year since it opened.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 88-year-old American tourist lost control of her scooter at around 12 p.m. on Saturday, according to the Nassau Guardian, the newspaper of record in the Bahamas.<\/p>\n

A Carnival spokesperson confirmed the incident to Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n

“Carnival confirmed that a female guest using a mobility scooter drove off the pier at Celebration Key<\/a> and fell into the water while Carnival Celebration was in port on May 9. Carnival teams responded, successfully retrieving her from the water,” a Carnival spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

“Despite resuscitation efforts, she did not survive. The deceased was taken by the Royal Bahamian Police Department and the coroner\u2019s office. Our thoughts are with her family<\/a>,” the spokesperson added.<\/p>\n

Officials believe the individual struck her head against the hull of the vessel, the Nassau Guardian reported.<\/p>\n

A passenger told local outlet WSVN that the woman “had a heart attack.”<\/p>\n

“[She] went off with the scooter, and banged her head pretty bad,” Edward Egersheim told the outlet. “And then her husband<\/a> tried to do what he could, and he ended up hurting himself as well.”<\/p>\n

The woman was transported to the ship’s medical facility for treatment and was pronounced dead, per the Nassau Guardian.<\/p>\n

The latest death follows two others at Celebration Key<\/a>, a Grand Bahama resort that opened on July 19, 2025.<\/p>\n

The private destination, which cost $600 million to build, features sprawling lagoons, beach areas and multiple swimming zones, according to Carnival.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Its website describes the resort as “Your Key to Paradise.”<\/p>\n

Last year, a 79-year-old man and a 74-year-old woman both died in separate drowning incidents at Celebration Key.<\/p>\n

The man drowned while snorkeling at a beach \u2014 while the woman was swimming in a lagoon pool. Lifeguards pulled both of them out and administered CPR, but were unsuccessful.<\/p>\n

“One guest was sailing with family on Mardi Gras, and one guest was sailing with family on Carnival Elation,” a Carnival spokesperson told Fox News Digital at the time.<\/p>\n

“Our thoughts and prayers are with the guests and their families and our Care Team is providing assistance.”<\/p>\n

Passengers in a Carnival Cruise Line Facebook group reacted with alarm to the latest death.<\/p>\n

“That is scary! And so sad!” one woman wrote.<\/p>\n

“So sorry to hear,” another said. “Prayers to her family<\/a> and friends.”<\/p>\n

A third Facebook user wrote, “This is the third death to happen at Celebration Key since it opened last year.”<\/p>\n

Another passenger aboard a Carnival Cruise Line<\/u><\/a> ship died in April 2026 falling from the balcony of her room while the vessel was sailing near Catalina Island.<\/p>\n

The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner identified the victim as 24-year-old Briana Miller.<\/p>\n

Stepheny Price and Brittany Miller of Fox News Digital, as well as Pilar Arias, contributed reporting.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
