I left an ipad in an F seat last Easter on LAX - HKG. I realized it literally 5 minutes after deplaning (albeit already through immigration), and called MPC line as well as some CX tel #s of on airport offices (lost and found, etc) I doubt the cleaners were even on board yet by the time I called.
Got nothing back. I was pretty bummed with CX HK, as I thought I had alerted them in time. Did the same thing HKG - SIN in J with a kindle (i am apparently careless), and they had the kindle waiting for me on check-in for my SIN-HKG return flight.
Good luck to the OP in getting his / her stuff back.
