Fresno Airport Lost and Found

Lost something at Fresno Yosemite International Airport? Report it immediately — airport lost and found offices hold items for 30–90 days, but recovery rates drop sharply after the first 24 hours.

Left somewhere in the airport (not at security)

Items left at the security checkpoint are logged separately from the airport's own lost and found — if you lost something at screening specifically, contact TSA (or FAT's checkpoint TSA office at +1-559-456-6862) rather than Airport Public Safety.

Note: items left in gate areas may also be held by the airline's gate staff — contact the airline directly for gate-area and on-board lost items.

What to do right now (step by step)

Check with the airline first — items left at gates or on the plane go to the airline, not the airport.
If lost in the terminal: call +1-559-621-6650 or go to Airport Public Safety Office, 4995 E Clinton Way, Fresno (the admin building adjacent to the terminal) — found items are held here until claimed.
If lost at the security checkpoint: call TSA at 1-866-289-9673 or file a claim online.
File an online claim if available — written claims are processed faster and create a searchable paper trail.
Check back in 24–48 hours — items are logged as they come in and may not appear in the system immediately.

Pro Tip

If you lost something on the plane, at the ticket counter, or on the baggage claim carousel, contact your airline directly instead of the airport — Airport Public Safety only handles items found in the terminal's public areas, not items left with an airline.

Frequently asked questions

How long does FAT airport keep lost items?

Most airports hold unclaimed items for 30–90 days before donating or auctioning them. File your claim as quickly as possible to maximize recovery chances.

What if I left something on the plane?

Items left on aircraft go to the airline, not the airport lost and found. Contact the airline directly — each airline has its own baggage service phone number and online claim process.

Call TSA at 1-866-289-9673 or file a claim at tsa.gov/travel/customer-service. Items left at security checkpoints are held for 30 days.

FAT does not currently list a standalone online lost item report form. Call +1-559-621-6650 to file by phone or visit Airport Public Safety Office, 4995 E Clinton Way, Fresno (the admin building adjacent to the terminal) — found items are held here until claimed in person.
