The Consulate-General of Japan in Ho Chi Minh City is issuing a warning regarding theft incidents of valuables onboard aircraft.
As reported cases, there have been incidents where wallets were stolen from hand luggage placed in the overhead compartments on flights from Singapore to Ho Chi Minh City. Additionally, cases included unauthorized use of credit cards that were inside the stolen wallets and theft of wallets from handbags on flights from Japan to Ho Chi Minh City, resulting in the loss of several hundred thousand yen in cash.
As preventative measures, regardless of whether on domestic or international flights, when bringing valuables such as cash onboard, it is advised to keep them on your person as much as possible instead of placing them in hand luggage stored in the overhead compartments. It is also recommended to keep valuables such as cash, credit cards, and passports on you when using the restroom.
