A netizen requested help from senators after she was offloaded on her way to Hong Kong.
Marian Ethel de Jesus, a freelance accountant, has revealed that she was offloaded despite presenting all required documents to NAIA.
“Inoffload nila ako. Hinanapan nila ako ng AOS na meron akong kamag-anak na pupuntahan ko up to 4th degree,” she said.
De Jesus said her parents could fly but not her.
@marian.diaries Pls help me reach Sen @Grace Poe @Raffy Tulfo @Senator Ramon Bong Revilla Jr. #offloading #naia #fyp #travelabroad #travelph #immigrationhorrorstories
“Paano ko pababayaan ang parents ko na senior citizens. First time travelers gusto lang mag Disneyland,” de Jesus explained.
In the end, the three returned home. Her dad even bought a few bags for the trip.
De Jesus and her family were supposed to fly to Disneyland in 2020, but the pandemic ended their plans.
A netizen said De Jesus lost around P70,000.
