Leaving items at the airport is not unusual.
All items found within the passenger terminal and on inbound flights are documented and stored for 3 months.
Enquiries regarding lost property can be made to the London Southend Airport Ticket Desk or by completing the form below.
For items left on board an aircraft (outbound flights) please contact your airline for further information.
London Southend Airport (LSA) keeps lost property for a maximum of 3 months. Lost property found within the airport and not collected within 3 months may be donated to various charities. Lost property found on inbound flights will be returned to the airline (or their selected handling agents) after a period of 1 month.
According to the lost property law, ownership is relinquished if an enquiry has not been made for a recovered item within 3 months.
An administration fee of £5 (GBP) is charged when the owner collects the recovered item. This is to cover the costs of storage, registration, opening hours and other administrative duties.
LSA is not responsible for organising or paying for any courier or posting items which cannot be collected in person.
Recovered items - if you have contacted LSA and arranged to collect your item at the Ticket Desk, please be aware that items are only kept for one month from the time you contact our team.
We are responsible only for recovered items and not for lost items.
British Law is applicable.
