“Leaving my prescription sunglasses in the TSA security bin was a massive bummer. I was stressed out, but your agents saved the day! They retrieved them from the checkpoint, shot me a quick text with shipping instructions, and mailed them the next day to my Airbnb. Having them back in my hands in less than 24 hours was unreal. Thank you for your great service!” JENNIFER L. · LAX

    I left my wallet at the airport and only noticed after I got home. I was really worried, but I reported it and was happy to hear that it had been found. The team was helpful and made the process simple. I really appreciate the help!

    I misplaced my laptop bag at the LAX boarding gate. I felt frustrated, as it had all my work documents. The team tracked it down quickly and arranged for me to pick it up at the customer service desk the same day. I am very grateful for their efficiency!
