Did you know?
Island airports are small, so ask for a name on the case. Ask for the handler's local contact and a direct number. Small stations like Santorini and Mykonos may have only one desk.

What other travellers advise
What other travellers advise
- Check the airport's own lost and found before paying a retrieval service. Reviewers of paid retrieval services say some items turned up on the airport's own page after a search fee was paid. Contact the airport office first.
- Follow up with the airline repeatedly. Forum travellers with late bags on Greek domestic legs advise contacting the baggage desk more than once a day. Persistence moves a case up the queue.
- File the missing-bag report before you leave the arrivals hall. Report the bag to the airline's ground staff at the airport and get a file reference before you walk out. Travellers report that airlines can refuse to open a case later if nothing was logged at the airport.
- Give the airline your hotel address and phone for delivery. Bags are normally delivered to your accommodation once found, often within a day or two. Give the exact hotel name, address, and a working local number, and update them if you move.
- Expect a day or two extra on the islands. Travellers on Naxos-Athens flights report bags arriving about two days late. Plan for a delay when changing islands and ask how the bag will reach your next stop.
