Where you report depends on where you lost it. If you left something in the terminal, call airport security using the numbers above. If you left it on the plane, contact your airline first, since items found on board are handled by the airline rather than the airport, though it is still worth calling the security desk in case it was turned in there. Either way, have your flight number, seat number and a clear description ready, including the brand, model, color, any standout features and anything valuable inside.
Airport Security: 1 (649) 941-4380
Turks & Caicos Islands Airports Authority (TCIAA): 1 (649) 946-4420
As soon as you realize you have lost your item, inform the cabin crew and call airport security immediately. If you lost your item on the plane, the cabin crew will find it and hand it over to airport security.
Don’t forget to call the airline’s customer service. Fill out the lost property form with your flight number, seat number, and flight time. Write down the brand, model, color, distinguishing features, and any documents inside your item on the form.

Contact your airline first, because items found on board go to the airline rather than the airport. Cabin crews hand anything found during cleaning to airport security, so it is worth calling the security desk too. Have your flight number, seat number and a clear description of the item ready.
Give the brand, model, color and any distinguishing marks, plus where and roughly when you last had it. Add your flight number, seat, and the best phone number and email to reach you while traveling. The more specific the description, the faster staff can match it to what has been handed in.
