• Strict Retrieval Process: The Lost and Found department requires in-person verification, making it difficult for passengers who have already left the airport.
• Time Constraints: Many travelers don’t have the time to return to the airport to collect their lost items.
• Documentation Hassles: Proper identification and documentation are needed to claim lost items, which can be stressful for passengers unfamiliar with the process.
• Communication Barriers: Foreign travelers may face language difficulties when dealing with the Lost and Found department.
• Security & Accessibility Issues: Some restricted areas of the airport are difficult to access, making it challenging for individuals to retrieve their belongings.
