The FBI do not stay on cases until the end if they have any indication that the person left on their own free will or are deceased. The FBI WILL announce that they are looking to "recover" remains if they believe the person is dead.
It is absolutely FALSE that the plea for tips was over 365 days ago! Also absolutely FALSE is that they were just asking crew and passengers.
Agent Hariden(sp) took over the case, she didn't REOPEN the case and the plea and new vid was March 18, 2018. Not even 60 DAYS ago.
The manpower and money that it takes to look for a missing person is simply not done if they believe that person is alive and well because they just don't want to be found.

Audio Transcript
Mollie Halpern: A reward of up to $25,000 is available for information leading to the resolution of the case of a missing Virginia woman.
Twenty-three-year-old Amy Lynn Bradley was on vacation with her parents and brother on the Royal Caribbean International cruise line ship Rhapsody of the Seas when she disappeared.
Special Agent Erin Sheridan says the ship was traveling toward Curacao, Netherlands Antilles on the night of March 23, 1998.
Erin Sheridan: That evening, Amy was out at the disco with her brother, other passengers, and crew socializing and having a great time. In the morning, when her parents and her brother woke, Amy was gone.
Halpern: Amy’s brother Brad was the last family member to see her.
Brad Bradley: Myself and my parents have had to endure a lot of sadness, but the last thing that I ever said to Amy was, “I love you,” before I went to sleep that night. Knowing that that’s the last thing I said to her has always been very comforting to me.
Halpern: Many details of Amy’s night out are missing, so even the smallest bit of information could help agents solve her case.
Sheridan: We’re not going to give up investigating what happened to Amy. We are Amy’s voice; we are her true advocate.
Halpern: Report tips to your local FBI office or American Embassy or Consulate or online at tips.fbi.gov. With Wanted by the FBI, I’m Mollie Halpern of the Bureau.
