Frequent questions
LUGGAGE
What happens with the objects that I found in the airport that I am not allowed to transport?
Registration formalities (check-in) consist of the presentation at the counter of an airline to be accepted as a passenger on a particular flight. It's where you register your luggage to be checked and then transported to the aircraft hold.
If you only found out at the airport that objects from your carry-on luggage, like pocket knife, nail clippers, scissors, knives are not allowed in the cabin, you can transfer them in the checked luggage. If these goods do not endanger the safety of aircraft, they can be registered as hold luggage.
Also, such items can be handed in to the air operator to be transported separately and handed to you at your destination.
If after security check I should abandon an object, will it be returned to me?
If, for whatever reason, items prohibited in carry-on luggage were not registered as checked luggage or delivered to the airline representatives, then the goods will be discarded in special boxes and mechanically destroyed according to civil aviation procedures in effect.
Luggage handling
Luggage handling and delivery from the point of check-in to the point of collection is the responsibility of the airlines. If you notice any irregularities regarding the condition of the luggage please contact the airline immediately.
