(CBS/WPEC) MIAMI - A crew member on a Disney cruise ship has been reported missing at sea off the western coast of Mexico.

According to CBS affiliate WPEC, Disney Cruise Lines spokeswoman Christi Donnan says the female crew member was reported missing Tuesday morning after she failed to report for a scheduled shift on the Disney Wonder.

The woman's name was not released. Donnan says Disney conducted a thorough search of the ship Tuesday.

The Mexican Navy was searching along the ship's route from Los Angeles. The U.S. Coast Guard and FBI were also notified.

Investigators from the Bahamas Maritime Authority will meet the ship Friday in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. All three Disney cruise ships are registered in The Bahamas.
