Have you lost something at Kansas City Airport ? Whether it slipped away inside the new terminal or out at the curb, here is how to report your lost property at Kansas City Airport.

About Kansas City International Airport
Kansas City International Airport (airport code MCI) serves Kansas City, Missouri, about 25 kilometres northwest of downtown. In 2023 it opened a new single terminal, replacing the old three-terminal layout and bringing all airlines under one roof. The largest carrier is Southwest Airlines, alongside United Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines and other domestic operators.
There is no rail link, so most travellers arrive by car, taxi or RideKC bus, and the airport is a short drive from downtown.
How the New Terminal Handles Lost Property
The single terminal that opened in 2023 changed how lost property is organised, and it helps to know the split before you call. Items lost inside the terminal, at a gate, a shop or security, go to the airport’s terminal lost and found. Things left in the car parks or on the parking buses, and items from the rental car area, are handled separately, with their own contacts and hours. So the first question to settle is not which of three terminals you used, as it once was, but whether the item went missing inside the building or out on the ground side.
Reporting a Lost Item at Kansas City Airport
For anything lost inside the building, the terminal lost and found is the place to go. Speak to staff there while you are at the airport, or open a report by phone or through our platform afterwards, describing where in the terminal you were and what the item looks like.

If the item stayed on the aircraft, that is the airline’s department. Contact your carrier with the flight number and seat so the cabin can be checked.

Where Lost Belongings Tend to Turn Up at MCI
Inside the new terminal and out on the ground side, the usual spots are :
- Security screening and the tray return
- Gate seating and the baggage claim carousels
- The curbside pick-up and drop-off areas
- The parking buses running between the lots and the terminal
Collecting Your Lost Item(s)
Once the item has been logged, bring identification matching the report to collect it, or send someone with written authorisation and both sets of documents. If you have already left Kansas City, ask the relevant desk whether the item can be couriered to you.
