Passing thru FRA?
 
Hello,
I passed through security at FRA on the morning of Thanksgiving on a non-rev vacation and left some personal property there. I’m wondering if anyone may be passing through in the next couple of days and can help me get the items stateside.
Please contact me by PM.
Thanks!

Might want to think of another way. Asking someone to bring stuff through security is exactly what KCM was worried about.....

I realize it may be an innocent request, but anyone doing so will be hanging it way out there.

How else is he going to get the heroin thru customs with zero risk?

Call United Ops in FRA and see if they’ll help you... I bet they will.

Yeah, sadly that’s reality and with that in mind I retract my plea for help. It is a personal iPad. FRA Lost and Found will ship it to me but who knows how long it will take. Seems almost like it could be faster to non-rev over there to fetch it. But the best thing to do is wait for them to ship it.

Our company would comat it. Have you called ops and asked them to grab it for you? It could be on the next flight back to your hub and waiting for you in your CPs office.

Someone told me that once about an item I left in Halifax. Then, I called the CPO. To put it simply, it is NO where near as fast or easy as that, especially from an international destination. They told me that I'd have it weeks sooner if I got it FedEx'd.

Sorry to hear. Good luck getting it back quickly.

Within 6 days and only 128 euro, the property arrived at my house on Wednesday via DHL. Pretty good service on behalf of FRA Lost and Found.

I left my earpiece on the plane in NRT and deadheaded home. Didn’t even realize I lost it until NRT Ops sent me an email telling me that they’d found it and that it was already on its way to me. It was waiting for me in SFO when I started my next trip seven days later.

I was impressed.
