Nobody answering?
Some offices don't list one clear number to reach them, so we collected the other numbers we found for them on airport, airline and guide websites. Try them one after the other.
- Second line
- Write insteadUse the email on the contact card. An email leaves a record: say what you lost, when and where in the first lines, and give your report number if you have one.
Did you know?
If the ship is still at the quay, ask at the info desk or purser. Ask on arrival at the port before the ship is cleaned. Note the deck and seat area where you sat.

What other travellers advise
What other travellers advise
- Left it on a ferry: contact the operator quickly. Contact the ferry company straight away with vessel, route, sailing time and a description. The longer the ship runs, the lower the chance of recovery.
- Do not book a flight right after a ferry arrival. Wind and extra stops delay ferries often. A tight connection also increases the chance of leaving things behind in a rush.
- Keep valuables with you on Greek ferries. Luggage is often stacked in open racks near the entrance on busy ferries. Keep passport, phone and medicine on you.
