Thiruvananthapuram: Relatives of the 226 Emirates passengers are pinning their hopes on a decent, if not hefty, compensation package from the airline, as the entire cargo went up in flames on Wednesday.
Many of them had valuable documents and other precious materials in the baggage. P A M Rashid from Poojapura saw off his daughter Shahina Rashid Ansari and her 10-year-old son at the Trivandrum International airport after a vacation.
“I am happy that all are safe. But she lost all her baggage that contained a laptop, an ipad, clothes etc,” he said.
Shahina and her son Firdous managed to run towards the rear emergency window while some of the passengers blocked the alley to collect their bags.
Many in a jiffy ran to take with them the valuables and important documents, such as passports and certificates, crucial for their sustenance in the Gulf.
Some of them managed to collect bags from cabin and jumped with it. Now I don’t think anything would be left in the debris,” said Shahina who more than relieved to save her passport which was in her hand bag but lost other valuables.
When she was taken for the first aid she made querries with fellow passengers who were equally clueless about their baggage.
