This is what the Celebrity website states... this apparently was a private tour and not a Celebrity operated tour:
SEVERAL BELIEVED KILLED OR INJURED IN BUS ACCIDENT - (March 22, 2006 -- 6:45 p.m.) - Several people are believed killed or injured in a bus accident in Arica, Chile. The guests were sailing aboard Celebrity Cruises' Millennium. They were on an independent private tour, not affiliated with the cruise line.
The accident occurred at approximately 4:30 p.m. local time. The injured have been taken to a local hospital, and a doctor and nurse from Millennium have been sent to the hospital to assist the injured and notify the families of the deceased.
The ship is currently sailing a 14-night South American cruise that departed Valparaiso, Chile, on March 19 and is scheduled to conclude in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on April 2.
The cause of the accident has not been determined, and Celebrity Cruises is working in close coordination with Chilean authorities to assist in their investigation.
Celebrity Cruises will provide additional information regarding this matter as it becomes available. Information will also be posted on the Celebrity Cruises web site at www.celebrity.com. |
