Eugenio, popularly known for glamming up the likes of Nadine Lustre, Catriona Gray and Vice Ganda, narrated his unfortunate experience via a TikTok video on Friday, April 11.
“PAL did it again. They left my luggage again. And I think they will forever target my luggage for this,” he said.
“They offloaded my makeup luggage from my flight and I have to go straight to work — every makeup artist’s nightmare.” “This is the second time, first in Palawan, now in Siargao,” he noted. Eugenio stressed he even “respectfully asked” the airline counter staff if there would be a chance that his baggage would be offloaded.
He added that he would have transferred the important items in his luggage to his carry-on bag had he not been assured by the staff. “Paulit ulit ko tinanong na, ‘Sure na po ha?’ Because I had previous experience na nga. Sabi hindi mao-off load,” he stated.
“ Nilagyan pa ng tag na priority because nga I explained how I’m going straight to work.” Eugenio then recalled how his flight was delayed by two hours without apparently receiving any notice. “And if I thought that was already bad, them randomly picking my ‘priority’ work bag to offload is a nightmare,” he said.
“ Sana yung damit na luggage na lang iniwan. Mata-target talaga nila yung bag ko for work because it’s heavy. May mga makeup.
May mga brush. May ilaw.” “This is tiring and traumatizing.
Tapos babayad na naman kayo ng P2,000 sa nawala na job na 6 digits,” he lamented. “Hurt of the Filipino.” In response to a netizen’s comment, Eugenio clarified that his luggage was not lost and was only put on another flight, but that he did not get any notice for such and only knew about it upon his arrival in Manila.
