Lost and Found at PHX Airport

Travelling can be a stressful experience and losing an item during your journey can add to that stress. Each airport, including Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport, has its own procedures for handling lost items. This guide will provide you with detailed information about what to do if you lose an item at a security checkpoint, on an aircraft, or in other areas of the PHX airport.

Items Lost at Security Checkpoint

If you suspect that you've lost an item at a security checkpoint, you should contact the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). They have a dedicated Lost & Found department that handles items left behind at security checkpoints. You can report your lost item by visiting the TSA Lost & Found Website.

Items Lost on Aircraft/Lost Luggage

If you've lost an item on an aircraft or your luggage hasn't arrived at the baggage claim, you'll need to contact your airline directly. You can find contact information for all airlines served by PHX Airport at the Airlines Served URL. Here are some of the most popular airlines used at PHX Airport:

Items Lost in Other Areas

If you've lost an item in the common areas of the airport, including the terminals, PHX Sky Train®, buses or parking areas, you should contact the Sky Harbor Lost and Found office. You can reach them at 602-273-3333 or email them at [email protected]. Unfortunately, there is no online form to report lost items at PHX.

It's important to note that property lost in these areas is held for only 10 days (except keys, which are held for 30 days) unless other arrangements are made. After this period, property is either donated, disposed of, or sent to the Phoenix Police Department. For more information on how property disposition is determined, you can contact the Lost and Found office.
