Ya Hui loses AirPods while filming at Jewel; tracks it all the way to Australia

“To the person who didn’t return the lost pouch, why [you] never bring me along? I would love to fly with you too,” Ya Hui wrote in an IG Story update.

Local actress Ya Hui, 35, learnt a pretty painful lesson earlier this week, after leaving her pouch behind while filming at Jewel Changi.

As it turns out, the actress, who is currently shooting an upcoming Mediacorp drama, had left her pouch, which contained her AirPods Pro, behind after filming.

And unfortunately for Ya Hui, whoever picked up the pouch had zero intentions of returning anything.

A brand new pair of AirPods Pro costs about S$360.

According to Apple, while you are able to track the location of your lost or stolen AirPods through the Find My app, you cannot prevent the AirPods from being used by whoever took it. 

A series of unfortunate events.

In a series of posts on her Instagram Story, Ya Hui shared updates on the whereabouts of her AirPods, first revealing that the location of her AirPods were last updated at the departure terminal of Changi Airport’s Terminal 3.

“To the person who didn’t return the lost pouch, why [you] never bring me along? I would love to fly with you too,” Ya Hui wrote.

It seems like Ya Hui had just bought the AirPods, with the actress lamenting in a subsequent post that the accessories that came bundled with her earpieces were all unopened.

“Lesson learnt: Don’t leave anything behind,” she wrote.

Going international.

Then, 12 hours later, Ya Hui returned with another update.

The AirPods thief had touched down in their destination country, and appeared to have returned home to a suburb in Perth, Australia.

“Wow! In Aussie now! I wonder where you are from…” the actress added, addressing the international thief.

Guess they’re busy enjoying their ill-gotten AirPods now…
