Lost and Found: Your Knight in Shining Armor (or T-Shirt)
The Atlanta Airport has a Lost and Found department, a haven for misplaced treasures (or at least, slightly used chapbooks about competitive yodeling). Here's how to get in touch with these knights in shining armor:
- Phone: Dial 404-530-2100, extension 100. Pro Tip: Channel your inner detective and grill them with details about your missing item. The more information you provide, the better your chances of a reunion.
- Email: Shoot them a message at lost@aatc.org. Be sure to include a detailed description of your lost item, along with the date and location (if you remember). Bonus points for a dramatic subject line, like "The Case of the Missing Muffin Man!" (Unless you actually lost a muffin man, then that would just be confusing.)
- Website: You can also check the status of your lost item online [online tool to find lost items at Atlanta Airport]. Just be prepared for a thrilling cliffhanger – new information only gets uploaded during business hours.
Remember: The Lost and Found is open Monday through Friday, from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm, excluding holidays. So, if you misplaced your lucky socks on a Saturday night, you'll have to wait until Monday to begin your quest.
QuickTip: Don’t just scroll — process what you see.
Where to Look Before You Contact the Lost and Found Police (Just Kidding, But Seriously...)
- Airlines: Did you leave your stuff on the plane or at the gate? Contact your airline directly. They might have it stashed away in their own lost and found.
- TSA: Think you lost something at security? The TSA has a separate lost and found for confiscated items that might make you question life choices (like, who travels with three nail clippers?). Their number is 404-530-9758.
Important Note: This is not the time to unleash your inner ninja and try to sneak back through security. Trust me, it'll end poorly.
