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 702-261-5211 or go to Baggage claim level of each terminal building (Terminal 1 and Terminal 3).
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

LAS has two separate terminal buildings (Terminal 1 and Terminal 3). Specify which terminal your flight departed from when calling, as each has a separate baggage claim and lost and found office.

Frequently asked questions

How long does LAS 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 LAS?

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 LAS?

LAS does not currently list a standalone online lost item report form. Call 702-261-5211 to file by phone or visit Baggage claim level of each terminal building (Terminal 1 and Terminal 3) in person.
