Are Airport responsible for lost items?
-
Yes — but with some important distinctions:
What CLE (Cleveland Hopkins Airport) is Responsible For
Items lost in public areas—e.g., at parking, ticketing, baggage claim, terminals, restrooms, the Information Desk—are handled by the airport’s Lost & Found office. Those items are kept for 30 days before disposal
What the Airport Is Not Responsible For
Items left on board an aircraft are not handled by the airport; you must contact your airline directly.
Items lost at a TSA security checkpoint are retained by TSA, not the airport’s Lost & Found.
