Lost Property Auctions

With nearly 24 million passengers travelling through Brisbane Airport’s International and Domestic Terminals every year, many weird, wonderful and valuable items are accidentally left behind by travellers.

Whilst every effort is made to return items to their rightful owners, unfortunately, many possessions remain unclaimed. Of these items, some are donated to local charities, while valuables are offered for sale to the public in our annual lost property charity auction.

Last year's auction raised more than $15,000 with all proceeds going to the Courier-Mail Children's Fund. 

This year's auction has now closed, with over $25,000 raised again for the Courier-Mail Children's Fund.

If you've lost something at the airport recently, fill in the Lost Property form and our Airport Ambassadors will look into it for you.
