Left my ipod on the plane - any chance of getting it back? - JPK - 10-11-2006

I flew home with the wife and kids yesterday and in all the comotion in getting the kids ready to deplane, left my ipod in the seat pocket.

Is there any chance of getting it back? Of course I had no addresses in it or identification on it. Does AA have some sort of centralized Lost & Found?

Suck it up and buy a new one?

you can call and try but chances are someone just got a free ipod. . .

Sad

Almost no chance....

Can't hurt to call though.

Do some online shopping for the replacement while you're on hold.

if you dropped it in the toilet you're lucky you haven't been arrested.

Two chances: slim and none.

Yes. But you will have to buy it off Craigslist in the town where they clean the plane.

Not that this would solve the problem (you ain't gettin' it back)

But put your name and contact info in Contacts under 'Home'. This way if a responsible person finds it, maybe they'll call.

If it was a Zune, ya might get it back. Not an iPod.

You never know. A friend found an iPod on the NYC subway a couple years ago. She thought about keeping it as there was no name on it. I told her to call Apple with the serial number and see if it had been registered. It had been. Apple contacted the owner and put her in touch with my friend. Needless to say, she was very surprised and grateful. A while later I gifted my friend with my original 5 GB iPod with a new battery. What goes around...........

if i found one on an airplane, in the seat pocket in front of me, i'd turn it in.

but that's me.
