Theft from luggage.
Posted Thursday, 13 May 2010 By Byron Price
It is with the utmost disgust that I have to report theft from the luggage of overseas visitors.
My friends flew from the U.K. to O.R. Tambo airport, and then transferred from O.R. Tambo to Swaziland via S.A. Airlink.
On boarding the airlink flight, they were told to leave their hand luggage on the tarmac next to the steps, as the plane was too small to accomodate hand luggage inside the plane. never did it enter their minds that there was any problem with their hand luggage being tampered with as they could see their luggage from the inside the plane.
On arrival in Swaziland, they collected their hand luggage on the tarmac outside the plane, proceeded to the Royal Swazi spa hotel. On opening their hand luggage, the one gentleman found R6000.00 Rand missing and the other gentleman was missing his cellular phone and camera.
Overseas visitors be vigilant, keep valuables on your person at all times. Do not let your hand luggage out of your sight.
