A flight attendant stole a passenger’s phone. The airline acknowledged it, fired the crew member, and covered the replacement cost of the device

However,the passenger feels they’re being shortchanged.

According to the customer they were flying Qatar Airways business class from Doha to Singapore on March 28th. During the 8 hour and 15 minute flight they got up to use the lavatory. When they returned to their seat they realized they’d left their phone behind.

They returned to the lavatory, but it was in use. A flight attendant exited the lav. The phone was gone. The passenger later tracked their phone to the crew’s hotel, and to the Philippines. They reported the incident to Qatar Airways. Usually an airline, or any company, won’t share this level of detail but the customer says that the theft was acknowledged and they were informed that the flight attendant was fired.

The airline characterized hte issue as “unattended personal belongings” rather than “theft”
And wouldn’t reimburse for the time, effort and inconvenience associated with losing a phone
