Lost & Found

Little Rock Airport Lost and Found

Lost something at Bill and Hillary Clinton National 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.

Items left at the TSA checkpoint itself can also be reached directly at (501) 200-2001; file a claim as soon as you notice something missing since checkpoint items are logged and held only briefly before being turned over to the airport's lost and found.

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 (501) 537-7391 or go to Customer Care Center, upper floor of the terminal (ticketing level), across from Riverbend Bar.
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

For anything left on board an aircraft, contact your airline directly — LIT's Customer Care Center only handles items found in the terminal and parking lots, not items left in the cabin.

Frequently asked questions

How long does LIT 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 LIT?

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 LIT?

LIT does not currently list a standalone online lost item report form. Call (501) 537-7391 to file by phone or visit Customer Care Center, upper floor of the terminal (ticketing level), across from Riverbend Bar in person.
