Follow the simple steps below to file a report. This applies only if the last flight in your itinerary is operated by Singapore Airlines, otherwise lodge your report with the operating airline.
 1. Lodge a report: A delayed baggage report can be lodged online or at the Lost & Found Office at the arrival airport. Ensure that you receive a copy of the report. |
