Help - Lost coat onboard
I accidentally left my coat on QF93 at LAX. I have approached check-in staff and baggage services but it was too late as the aircraft was towed away from the terminal by the time I realised. They took my number but I didn't think they took me too seriously.
I am transiting through LAX next week, whom should I approach to see if my coat has indeed been found?

Lost Property Enquiries
If you would like to enquire about property that you may have left on board a Qantas aircraft contact Baggage Services at the airport of your arrival.

Hopefully you get a lost baggage number when you call so on your way back through you can chase it up with QF.
Good luck.

Thanks for the advice - gave them a call just then - nope no luck...
Just a rant:
I can only blame myself on leaving my coat on the plane - though I wonder whether the ground staff could have tried harder to find it. I knew exactly where I left it, so I'm not asking someone to search the whole aircraft...
Oh well, lesson learnt!

I also did the same thing after leaving a jumper on board. I had just flown PER to BNE overnight and had around a four hour layover until the next flight to Bundaberg. When I went to board the flight to BDB, Qantas just handed it over to me and it was ONLY then I remembered that I left it behind!!
A pretty good effort from someone behind the scenes to do a bit of research :-)

I boarded an international flight in SYD. Went to turn my phone off and realized I must have left it in the lounge.
I asked if I could deboard to get it - plenty of time. FA took my phone number and said that they'd get it sent down. Few minutes later it was with me.
Classic YMMV.

A couple of years ago left a JNB-SYD flight in F transfer to BNE, realised I had left a bag with a present in it as soon as I got to the Dom J lounge.
Rang - but no banana, someone else got the present that was in the bag.
