A note to the person who has my noise cancelling headset
Last week, I forgot my noise cancelling headset in the seat pocket of J class YWG-YVR. I noticed my mistake less than three minutes after deplaning. I was allowed back on .....and they were gone. !!!!!!
As my business card was inside the case, it was easy to contact me to return the headset......
To that person....... I say#%&(#@

Happy Reunion
Similar incident last week YVR/YYZ. Customer left $500.00 headsets in seat pocket at 1K. F/A located them, turned them over to me. I in turn ran them up to the Gate Agent who pulled up Customer PNR and contacted him on his cell phone. Unbelievably he was already on the road, but I ran them up to the ticket counter for pick up the next day. Sincerely hope your headsets find their way back - it does happen^

I had a very similar incident a few years ago after landing in YUL - I was also travelling in J on the YYZ-YUL-GVA flight. You deplaned in YUL, but then continued on to GVA on the same aircraft. I realized I had left my expensive headset in the pod seat pocket five minutes after deplaning. I was allowed back in, but they were already gone. Groomers had already been through my pod, and I assumed one of them "groomed" my headset away.

sorry to hear airbus320. It's most likely that another deplaning pax took them, and that doesn't surprise me unfortunately.
I have left a cell phone in the pod of a 333 and laptop under the seat in front of me on a 763. Because both were 'hidden' in areas not easily visible, they were not stolen during deplaning. Thankfully LHR baggage services went up and grabbed my cell phone in person (very thankful to that individual), and YUL baggage services paged my name terminal-wide when the groomers found my laptop and determined it was mine.

Left my cell phone on the console between the J seats in a 321 a couple of summers ago. Made it all the way to the taxi when I realized it was missing. Immediately went back to the checkin counter in YEG and explained the situation. Five minutes later it was delivered to me landside by the gate agent.

Again airbus320 ??? You have bad luck with those headphones ! Knock on wood for myself - I haven't lost them yet but I did lose my ipod nano when it slid out of the back pocket of the Bose case...

Sorry to hear of your bad luck.
I've had NC headphones and even books go missing after I've just stepped off the plane and got back on (to check) after a few minutes.

I grabbed a guys left behind jacket off his seat....
...thinking I could catch up with him...mistake, I somehow lost him in the terminal.
So I walked back to the gate told the GA loading the turnaround, she contacted AC L&F.
So I assume eventually they got a hold of the guy.
Someone may have just been trying to help and it didn't go as planned.
Give it a day or two.

Left a pair of noise cancelling headphones in the seat pocket before too. Didn't realise for a few days. Emailed "lost & found" with the details. Two days later, noise cancelling headphones arrived in the mail.
They weren't actually mine, but so close that you'd need to know your Sennheiser models to tell the difference. Someone had clearly done a search of their lost & found inventory.
So, maybe an email will help locate them (or a similar set!).
