Hello friends,
Taking a shot in the dark, needle in a haystack chance if anyone finds a brown FQHH Aero Sheene that I managed to set down and not pick up in the Tampa, FL airport. Really cannot believe I could have done that. Happened somewhere between the outside drop-off for Departures and the check in for a Delta flight. Around 5:00 PM Eastern time yesterday.
Simple story of "how" was good by's to family members outside their car, jacket and carry-on back in backseat of said car, walked around to retrieve bag and thought (initially) that I must have pushed the jacket off onto the seat to get the bag out first. It was 80F outside at the time. I must have grabbed it as family has certainly indicated they could not find it in the car at all. Walked in after goodbye's and proceeded straight to Delta self-check in's. Did not recall carrying it in there, but didn't realize it until boarding passes were printed and I was up the escalator headed toward the tram to ride out to the "E" gates and security check-in. Suddenly I realized I was missing my jacket entirely!
I sprinted back onto the down escalators, got back to the Delta check in area. Nothing. Ran back outside to where I had been dropped off. Nothing. No sign of it anywhere at all. So I left a message on family member's phone and headed to the gates, supposing (incorrectly) that it was in the car.
This morning got the call - no jacket. Sinking feelings inside. Called both lost & found and non-emergency Police number at the airport. Nothing found like this so far, name and contact left with airport security and lost and found.
Most likely - it's long gone. I've dealt with it, it was my own irresponsibility. However if anyone see's it - please let me know. I bought this through this forum from TNJ Young about a year back. Here's a few photos that may help. The plaid tartan lining is rather unique. Thank you in advance!
