Missing Veil Files 011 | Amy Lynn Bradley: The Woman Who Vanished From a Cruise Ship
Send us Fan Mail On March 24, 1998, 23-year-old Amy Lynn Bradley vanished from Royal Caribbean’s Rhapsody of the Seas as the ship approached Curaçao. Amy had been traveling through the Caribbean with her parents and younger brother. During the early morning hours, her father reported seeing her asleep on the balcony of the family’s cabin. Less than an hour later, Amy was gone. No confirmed trace of her has ever been found. Over the years, several people have reported seeing women they believed were Amy in Curaçao and other parts of the Caribbean. Although these accounts remain unconfirmed, they have fueled questions about whether Amy fell overboard—or whether she left that ship alive. In Missing Veil Files 011, we examine Amy’s final known hours, the response aboard the ship, the searches that followed, reported sightings, photographs that became a major part of the investigation, and the theories that continue to surround her disappearance. Amy Lynn Bradley remains missing. ──────────────────── ️ CASE INFORMATION Name: Amy Lynn Bradley Missing Since: March 24, 1998 Last Known Location: Royal Caribbean’s Rhapsody of the Seas, approaching Curaçao Age at Disappearance: 23 Date of Birth: May 12, 1974 Height: 5 feet 6 inches Weight: Approximately 120 pounds Hair: Short brown hair Eyes: Green Status: Missing Distinguishing Features: • Tasmanian Devil tattoo spinning a basketball on her shoulder • Sun tattoo on her lower back • Chinese symbol tattoo on her right ankle • Gecko tattoo around her navel • Navel piercing ──────────────────── EPISODE INCLUDES • Amy’s background and the Bradley family’s Caribbean cruise • Her final evening aboard the Rhapsody of the Seas • The last confirmed sighting of Amy • The response from the cruise ship and authorities • Search efforts in and around Curaçao • Reported sightings following her disappearance • The photographs associated with the case • Theories involving an accident, foul play, and possible abduction • The Bradley family’s decades-long search for answers • The continued FBI investigation ──────────────────── IF YOU HAVE INFORMATION Anyone with information concerning the disappearance of Amy Lynn Bradley should contact: FBI Tip Line: 1-800-CALL-FBI 1-800-225-5324 Submit a tip online: https://tips.fbi.gov You may also contact your local FBI office or the nearest United States Embassy or Consulate.
