Kim Chiu slams airline for lost luggage, unresponsive customer service: ‘Never again!’
Actress Kim Chiu took to Twitter last Saturday, May 19, to ask for help regarding a certain airline and her lost luggage. The airline in question was Flair Airlines, and is based in Kelowna, British Columbia in Canada.
Chiu was in Edmonton, Alberta earlier this month, as she took to Instagram to congratulate her brother, John, who is now a professional pilot in the said country.
“Does anyone here knows the contact number for flair air?” tweeted Chiu, sounding desperate. “Been calling them for my lost luggage, yet no one is answering… Some impt (important) things are in the bag!!! Paid extra for the luggage too! Why oh why?!!!! Help please.”

James Banaag of ABS-CBN, tried to help Chiu out and gave her the contact number of the airline, but it seemed Chiu was down on her luck. “Ilang beses nako tumawag jan, binababa yung line pag pinepress ko yung 5 customer service!” (I have tried calling that number several times; they just drop the call whenever I press 5 for customer service.)
