Where's My Stuff?
It happens to a lot of people. You're rushing for a flight, hassled getting through airport security. You've removed your shoes, your watch, your jewelry and emptied your pockets.
Finally you put yourself back together and run for your flight.
After take-off, you realize you've left something important back at the security checkpoint.
Great.
All is not lost. Most airports have phone numbers you can call to find out if your lost item has been found and set aside. These numbers are only for things left at TSA checkpoints. That doesn't include confiscated things like guns and knives. You can kiss those goodbye. But if you forgot, say, a watch or a bracelet, the chances are good that it was turned in to lost-and-found.
