A tourist travelled from the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh, to Istanbul a few months ago. During his tour in Istanbul, in one of the public transports he lost his wallet which included an amount of money, identity cards and bank cards.
Even though the Saudi citizen did not fly with Turkish Airlines, his wallet was found and delivered to the Turkish Airlines Riyadh Office thanks to the collaboration between the head of Middle East Turkish Airlines and Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality. The staff in Turkish Airlines Riyadh Office got in contact with the owner of the wallet and submitted it.
The Saudi citizen expressed his gratitute and appreciation to Turkish Airlines and Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality for their help even though he did not fly with Turkish Airlines. He stated that “If my wallet had not been found, it would have been very difficult for me to spend so much time to get new cards and follow all official procedures to have them again and also not having the identity cards would have affected my daily life in a negative way.” This event took a great deal of praise in Riyadh newspapers.
