Question 1

How long does recovery take at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport?

Accepted Answer

The median at this venue is 4 days from the moment a claim is filed, measured against claims that were eventually matched. Items that are never handed in sit outside that figure.

Question 2

What should I put in the claim description?

Accepted Answer

Colour, material, any distinguishing marks, and the contents if the item is a bag. A description a stranger could use to identify the item is enough.

Question 3

Can I file after leaving Fort Lauderdale?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The claim is handled remotely. If the item is found you choose whether to collect it in person or have it shipped, and the desk quotes that separately.
