Lost and Found
If your baggage was lost during transportation, please submit an application to your airline as it is the airline who is directly responsible for your belongings as stated in the contract when buying a ticket.

If your baggage did not arrive, the baggage or its contents were damaged, or the contents are missing, please contact the Lost and Found service before leaving the arrivals hall and make sure to collect a Property Irregularity Report (PIR) which will be given to you after you submit an application.
