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 509-455-6429 (Lost & Found direct line; main airport info desk 509-455-6455 can also route calls) or go to Airport Administration office, 9000 W Airport Dr, Suite 204, Spokane, WA 99224.
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

Submit the online ChargerBack claim form immediately — it's the airport's primary lost-item tracking system and lets staff match your description against found inventory as it's logged. If the item was left on board, contact your airline directly (all eight carriers have counters or baggage service desks in the terminal); if left in a rental car, contact the rental company directly.

Frequently asked questions

How long does GEG 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.

How do I report a lost item at the TSA checkpoint at GEG?

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.

Can I file a lost item report online for GEG?

Yes — GEG has an online lost item report form. Filing online is recommended as written claims are typically processed faster than phone reports alone.
