There is a chance, yes. But the cleaning crew is known to steal stuff as are many airport employees.

There's a form to fill out at UA website for lost and found.

By the time your finished the form and gets processed it will fissure be gone!
 Your not better off with calling some numbers to united?

I've left laptops, tablets and drivers licenses on planes over the years. Always got them back, but always remembered right after, on the other side of security, and had someone go back on board for me.

Just a quick update.
I logged into Find my iphone on a computer and put the ipad into lost mode so that if it was connected to the internet it would erase all my info. Sure enough within a few days i got a email saying that all my content was being erased
Never got it back tho :(

Ouch. Sorry. What a bad feeling. Would the person even have a way to get it back to you now?

Unfortunately, many who work security have sticky fingers.
