Former Pakistan captain and cricket commentator Wasim Akram on Wednesday took to Twitter to post about his lost watch. He tagged the operator, Emirates Airline, to ask for their assistance in retrieving the watch if possible. Emirates Airline responded responded by asking Akram to provide details of the watch and the flight.
While this seems like a normal exchange, little did Akram imagine that this will give fodder to the Twitterati to have a field day. “Lost my watch on flight EK 605 seat 10a KHI-DXB. I am now following @emirates. Please have someone contact me ASAP as I have exercised all customer service points in Dubai and do not feel comfortable that enough has been done. This watch is a family heirloom #LostMyWatch” wrote Akram on Twitter.
To this the help desk at Emirates responded by writing, “Hi Wasim, please DM us the description of the watch along with your flight details and email address. We’ll check on this with our Lost and Found Team and let you know. Thanks.”
