Contact JFK Clubhouse (Lost item)

Hi All,

Flew home on the VS010 last night, and like a muppet I've left my toiletry bag in a shower-room at the JFK Clubhouse. Is there any way to contact the Clubhouse that anyone knows?

Tried FC - weren't any help.

Thanks :-)

I too have been a victim of the "Ooops I left something in the shower room of the JFK clubhouse". I enquired at the checkin desks when I got back and they gave me a direct number to the clubhouse - that being said I can't retrieve it at the moment as Three.co.uk is down. I'll grab it as soon as it's back.

Don't get your hopes up. I thought I'd left something in the LHR CH and messaged them on face book and didn't even get a reply!

Curiously I had the very opposite! Left a watch there and had realised when we were two hours into the flight. Informed the crew who passed it on to the Captain, he started relaying messages to the ground staff asking them to look for it!

Found the number :) it is +1 718-751-4360

Best of luck.

Did you retrieve your toiletry bag? I'm in the JFK CH at the moment and more than happy to ask if not?

You could ask if they ever found my Tissot watch from 3/4 months ago! :P I think I left it in a bathroom or shower. Boo.

You really want me to? Happy to give it a shot. PM me your name and description and I'll see if they have a lost property.

Ah thanks but it's fine, I called them like 4 times in the days following it and it didn't show. Cheers though!

Ah just seen this one. I asked and they have not had a tissot watch left behind over the last 6 months. Suggest you check with TSA lost and found, you may have left it behind at security.

At thank you anyway! It was definitely at some point in the lounge as I remember looking at it in there. I emailed lost and found but nothing came out of it.

Just as a general point about lost and found at the VS JFK CH - They log what they find, but it goes to main airport lost and found for collection or disposal.

Hi Joey, Thanks for asking.

I did call (thanks to SlimpyJones for the number :-) ), and spoke to the CH manager, but she said they hadn't found anything. I'll be back there (again) on Wednesday night anyway, so will check.

As a further note to anyone that reads this thread in future, it sounds like standard VS policy is to turn any items over to the lost and found department of the airport. (For items lost on flights it would be the airport the flight arrived at).

In my case the $30 fee that JFK would have charged for its return would have been more than the cost of a new toothbrush etc anyway!

:)
