Local actress, presenter and producer Minnie Dlamini simply wanted to spoil herself with a trip to celebrate her birthday in London. A perfect plan, just that her luggage didn’t arrive until the last hours of her trip.
The 34-year-old actress landed in London to the horrific reality that the airline she flew with, British Airways, lost her luggage, much to her dismay.
“BA LOST MY LUGGAGE 😭 @British_Airways Just landed in London to celebrate my birthday with my bestie. Luggage didn’t land with me though.
“No clothes, no toiletries, what a nightmare. I have photoshoots planned for work but I have none of my stuff to shoot…”
With none of the items she had hoped to use for her planned shoots, Dlamini was left in quite a pickle. Dlamini’s luggage arrived on the third day of her trip, a day before she was scheduled to leave the United Kingdom.
I got my bag!!! @British_Airways even though I had to drive 2hours to the courier depot because they just didn’t deliver my bag to my address after changing the delivery times every hour keeping me on edge and not knowing how to move ‘incase’ they showed up which they never did.… pic.twitter.com/r96ptK5l7F
