WHERE IS THE LOST AND FOUND AT MIA?

There isn't just one. MIA, TSA, each airline and Miami-Dade transit all keep their own. We work out which desk has your item and file with them for you.

HOW LONG DOES MIA KEEP LOST ITEMS?

Each desk sets its own holding period. The airport's own lost and found holds items for a limited time before release, and airlines and TSA run separate clocks. We check with each desk as the claim progresses and tell you what that desk quoted.

I LEFT SOMETHING ON MY PLANE. WHO DO I CONTACT?

The airline, not the airport. Cabin items stay with the carrier's own lost property team at the arrival station, so the claim goes to your airline with your flight number and seat.

CAN YOU HELP IF I'VE ALREADY LEFT MIAMI?

Yes. The claim is handled remotely. If the item is found you choose between collecting it at MIA and having it shipped, and the desk quotes shipping separately.

ARE YOU PART OF MIAMI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT?

No. We are an independent, US-based service. We file with the airport, TSA and airlines on your behalf and chase the desks, but we do not work for any of them.

FILE TODAY, WHILE THE TRAIL IS FRESH

DON'T LET IT GO UNCLAIMED.

Items left at MIA move from the gate to a storeroom fast. Start your claim now and we'll take it from there.
