If you've already left the airport, you can contact the Virgin Atlantic lost baggage team:

Email: baggage.tracing@fly.virgin.com

Tell them your flight number and date of travel, a description of your lost item and your seat number if you remember it.

How to claim lost items on your insurance

If you've lost something and would like to claim for it on your insurance, we can provide you with written confirmation that we have searched for the item you have described to us. Before requesting this from us you must check with your insurers first as this "confirmation of search" letter may not be sufficient proof of your loss. Our lost property handlers may charge for this service.

How to contact the airport's lost property department

If you lost your item in a public airport area you can try the airport's lost property service. They'll need as much detail as possible about the lost item and where you think you left it, as well as:

  • Your full name
  • Your address
  • Your telephone number
  • Your flight number and flight date

If they've found it, they'll be in touch to arrange its return to you. There will be an admin cost to get your item back, as well as the cost of postage or delivery.

If they don't find it, the lost property department should email you to let you know within 5 days.

Where we haven't listed a lost property office below, you can give our lost baggage team a try and they'll do what they can to help.
