Using Airport Lost And Found

By Amanda Baird


Air travel can often be stressful. You can often find yourself running and desperately chasing to reach your flight. Inevitably this can mean things can get lost along the way. If you find this happens to you then you will need to use the airport lost and found so you can get your items back.

In simple terms this is where you need to go if you lose something you want to reclaim. It does not necessarily have to be something valuable. Often people go back because there is something of sentimental value or it is something that they do not want to replace. Whatever the reason you need to be prepared in case something does go missing.

Another thing to be aware of are operating hours. This will vary depending on the airport with some having fewer than others. Ideally you should check this before

For example there are a lot of cellular phones that look similar. A blue one is likely to look similar to another blue one. However if the case has a cartoon character on it or stickers then it is likely to stand out from the other phones that have been handed in so these are the kind of details to remember.

However there is the problem that you may not realise that something is lost until you get home. Fortunately you do not need to be physically there in order to enquire about reclaiming items. At the very least you should be able to call someone so that they can check to see if anything has come in.

You can then enquire about what has arrived and whether or not the item is one that you own. As with a meeting in person you need to give them as many details as possible in order to ensure that this is something you own. It may sound obvious but it is important that people know that your inquiry is genuine and that you are legitimately claiming an item. For example if there is a specific dent on the screen or some kind of identifying mark that can help.

The way in which a lost property desk will vary according to the airport. Some will simply note down a missing item. Others may give you a tracking number to note down. In either case it is important to listen and to follow any instructions you are given. While it can be difficult during a stressful time you need to remember what they tell you and to note it down.

One of the most crucial things to remember when using an airport lost and found is to remain calm. While losing items can make life very stressful abusing people who are trying to help you will not result in quicker service. While there is no guarantee that you will get an item back it is best to do all you can to find the right authorities and being as thorough as you can to give yourself the best chance to get your personal items back.
