Forgetful Chonburi woman gets her bag back: It contained 500,000 baht in valuables

A Chonburi woman told the press that she collapsed at Suvarnabhumi Airport when she realized that her black bag containing her valuables was missing. 

Thirty one year old Waranya Paksa was outside the airport preparing to get into a vehicle to go home after a trip to Norway.

But where was her bag? 

It contained gold jewelry – rings, bracelets, necklaces and diamonds – and various currency. It was all valued to half a million baht. 

She collapsed on the spot believing she would never see her valuables again. 

Dashing back inside the terminal the airport authorities were soon on the case studying CCTV. They saw that the bag was in place at carousel 10 and when she went to customs gates 5 and 6. 

This was where she had left her bag. Customs officials had handed it in to customer service. 

Finding everything in its place she thanked the staff for their great work.
