There are lots of things to think about when getting on a flight. You want to make sure you have your passport, ticket and so forth. Naturally you want to physically get your seat in time for take off and sometimes this means you can miss something while rushing. This can result in losing items along the way and this is when you may need the services of the airport lost and found.

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

Another thing you need to check is opening hours. This will vary according to the airport and you need to be sure you know this before you travel. It can be very stressful losing an item and then be unable to reclaim it because you cannot talk to people and be able to find your lost property.

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.

The procedure will vary according to the airport with some items reported missing within 24 to 48 hours of being given in to the airport. Some companies will simply have someone at a desk responding to various enquiries. In other cases it may be more elaborate and you may be given a tracking number. Remember to keep a record of this as this will make it easier when making follow up enquiries or if you get transferred to another operative.

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.

It may also be possible to check airport lost and found online. Typically missing items will be placed on the database around 24 to 48 hours after they have been found. Therefore if you cannot find an item it is worth checking again. In short if you can remain calm then it is more likely that you will be able to recover your missing items. Look online for more information so that you can prepare before you travel.
