Items Lost on the Plane

If you believe you have left an item on the aircraft upon arrival at Nashville Airport, there are several options available to you. First, you can return to the gate where your flight arrived. If the plane is still there, the gate agent may allow you to check for your item. Alternatively, you can go to the lost and found desk if one is available at the airport.

Another option is to visit the luggage/baggage services desk for your airline. This is typically located in the baggage claim area. Finally, you can contact your airline directly. Many airlines have procedures in place to help passengers recover lost items.

Lost Checked Baggage

If your bag does not appear in the baggage claim area within a reasonable amount of time, it's important to take action quickly. Most airlines have a baggage service office located in the baggage claim area. Report your missing bag to the airline, providing as much detail as possible about the bag and its contents. The airline will typically provide you with a file reference number. Keep this number safe as you will need it for follow-up calls and/or claims.
