Lost property at the airport? They'll mail it back to you for free

I want to give a huge thanks to Priscilla at the SeaTac airport lost property office.

As we were heading out to Ireland about six weeks ago, I left a beloved necklace in the security scanner. It's not a valuable necklace at all, but I love it. And I assumed that it was lost for ever, just like every other item I put down somewhere.

When we got back I called the SeaTac lost property office. I didn't expect them to have my necklace, but they did! They had it! They gave me a code so I could pick it up when I was next in the airport, but you know what? I forgot.

Yesterday I called the office again and Priscilla tracked my necklace down, and not only offered to ship it to me, but sent it to me in US Mail for free.

Note: After a certain time - I think about six weeks - they're required to sell the item and donate the money. So you might want to enquire about your item sooner rather than later. Report an item lost in SeaTac Airport.
