Virgin Atlantic has revealed the strangest items passengers leave behind after travelling with the airline. A survey of cabin crew and ground staff shows it’s not just the expected things like reading glasses, books, headphones, makeup kits, neck pillows, CDs and duty free shopping that are left behind. , Some passengers also leave behind often valuable items such as personal electronics like smartphones, iPods, cameras, iPads, kindles and even laptops.
Appearing on the survey were, surprisingly, items like wedding rings, baby strollers, shoes, passports and even artificial body parts.
Virgin Atlantic makes several attempts to reunite the left items with the passengers. And any left items that are not claimed for more than 6 months, if not perishable, are donated for charitable causes.
The most frequent items that have been left behind by the passengers are:
- Books
- Reading glasses
- Mobile phones
- Cameras
- iPod/MP3 players
