Tulsa Airport Lost and Found

For items left at the Schaub Hall security checkpoint, TSA logs them separately from the airport's own lost and found — file with TSA directly rather than the airport office, and claims are easiest within the first 24–48 hours.

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 918-838-5333 or go to TUL Lost & Found Office, Room A211.
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

TUL's Lost & Found Office (Room A211) uses an online claim form covering items left in restaurants, shops, restrooms, seating areas, and baggage claim; items left on an aircraft or at a ticket counter go through the airline instead, so identify where you last had the item before calling.

Frequently asked questions

How long does TUL 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 TUL?

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 TUL?

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