Celebrity makeup artist Jelly Eugenio said he is not suing Philippine Airlines after it offloaded his baggage containing his makeup and other work-related stuff that led him to lose a six-digit deal.In a series of photos uploaded on TikTok on Sunday (April 13), the makeup artist said he does not have the time and energy to waste on the incident.He also aired out his frustration on the resolution offered by the airline, saying he was “very disappointed.
”“I am very disappointed at the fact they did not try to resolve this early on. They just sent me a bunch of scripted codes - pushing me to sign on a paper and get [P2,000] in exchange for the delay and damages caused. No accountability - but just an instant fix of PHP2,000.
(Yes, part of the Air Passenger Bill of Rights, but you guys can keep it),” Jelly wrote online.While Jelly noted that baggage offloads do occur at times, he emphasized that it is still “very unfair” to passengers, especially to those who do not receive early notice.The makeup artist wrote, “I'm just guessing it's a normal thing that happens -- for valid reasons to the airline of course -- but very unfair to passengers.
Especially the NON- NON-ANNOUNCEMENT that your bag will be left on an island and you'll only receive it hours later, or even worse, the next day. As a Filipino always running to work after work -- this is a disaster.”“All in all, I understand.
For safety, for urgency, for that situation, I totally understand,” he added, “I'm not even posting this to get the pay, [...
] but PAL just really deserves to be called out for making this seem normal.” Jelly first shared the encounter on his TikTok account and called it “every makeup artist's nightmare.” This was also the second time he experienced the incident with the same airline.
“This is tiring and traumatizing. Tapos babayad na naman kayo ng [P2,000] sa nawala na job na [six-digits],” said Jelly.(This is tiring and traumatizing.
Then you will just pay me P2,000 for a job that costs six digits.) Philippine Airlines immediately responded in the comments section, “Hello, Jelly. We understand how frustrating and stressful this situation must have been, especially given the urgency of your work.
[...
] Thank you for your patience and understanding.”Jelly Eugenio is a renowned celebrity makeup artist who has worked with Vice Ganda, BINI, Nadine Lustre, Jennylyn Mercado, Catriona Gray, and more.RELATED GALLERY: CELEBRITIES AND THEIR PHOTOGENIC MAKEUP LOOKS.
