Spilled water over keyboard of MacBook Air

A glass of water spilled over the keyboard of my MacBook Air M1 2020. I immediately turned it on edge and let the water drain out. It is now in a tent position while it dries further. Can it be repaired? I have AppleCare+ which is good up until April 2024.

Water damaged my MacBook Air keyboard Hi, I accidentally spilled half a glass of water on my Macbook air keyboard, instantly closed it, wiped it and flipped it upside down to dry. And took an appointment at an Apple store in 72 hours. Is it wrecked? Or is there a change I could have saved it or is it reparable? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Water spillage Hi- last night I spilled some water with a drop of old juice on my MacBook Pro keyboard- it wasn’t a big spill and it only got on the right side of the keyboard. I got a towel and dried everything off there was some water still in the keys and I got some out but I turned it off a little while later and turned it upside down and letting it dry over night with a towel underneath it. It still worked even after I spilled it and was doing fine. Should I be concerned? It still works and everything?

There's several ways to contact those persons. Use [Get Support] or [retail Genius]
