Location-Specific Procedures

Items Lost in Other Areas

If you've lost an item in other areas of the airport, such as parking areas, rental car facilities, or shuttle buses, you should also contact the Lost & Found Department.

Items Lost on the Plane

If you believe you've left an item on the aircraft after arriving at Cancun Airport, you have several options to recover your belongings. You can return to the gate where your flight arrived, if possible, and ask the staff there for assistance. If the gate is no longer accessible, look for a lost and found desk at the airport. Most airports have one, and they are typically the first place where items found on planes are taken.

Another option is to visit the luggage or baggage services desk for your airline. These are usually located in the baggage claim area. The staff there can assist you in locating your lost item. If all else fails, you can contact the airline directly. They may have additional procedures for handling lost items.

Lost Checked Baggage

If your checked baggage does not appear in the baggage claim area within a reasonable amount of time after your flight's arrival, you should immediately report it to your airline. The airline's baggage services desk, typically located in or near the baggage claim area, is the best place to do this. They can help you file a claim and start the process of tracking down your bag.

How to File a Report

When filing a lost item report, it's important to provide as much detail as possible, including the brand, color, size, type, and identifiable features of the item. You should also include your first and last name, contact number, date and time of travel, and the airline you used. Unfortunately, the airport does not support online form submission for lost items, so you must contact the Lost & Found Department directly using the provided contact information.

Collection, Delivery, and Charges

Only the owners of lost or forgotten items can claim them from the Lost & Found Office. This must be done either by phone or in person. The airport does not provide information regarding the availability of delivery services or any associated fees with lost and found services.

Special Considerations

The Lost & Found Department is not responsible for luggage and items forgotten inside the airplane. These are handled strictly by the airline's personnel. If your luggage is missing or damaged, you should contact your airline directly and file a complaint with them. Also, please be aware that due to strict security regulations, not all lost items are reported as they are sometimes kept by the people who find them. All airport personnel are searched and screened for items before they leave the airport's premises after a day's work to ensure that they do not take items that they might have found.
