Left iPad in Seat Pocket...

Jeremyk can you give us an update?

On our recent trip from DFW-SYD, my wife left her iphone in the seat pocket. As soon as we had cleared customs she realised and the Qantas ground staff contacted the flight crew (which were still on board). The Qantas crew found the phone and brought it to customs, where they handed it to us, across the customs line.
We got lots of looks from the customs staff and they watched intently as the phone was passed to us.
It all worked out in the end and the Qantas crew was awesome, as always!

Hi Jeremyk, if you had the find my iPad app you may want to keep logging in from time to time. Hopefully someone has the smarts to recharge it/power it up, fingers crossed it picks up open wifi. Consider blocking it at some stage. Unfortunately someone could install different firmware.

oh don't worry I have been watching that like a hawk. the iPad is in 'lost mode' right now so it displays a message with my mobile number. its locked and you cant do anything.
it hasn't checked in though so I'd say its still off....

Another trick is to allow iPhoto to store on iCloud. Any subsequent photos will be uploaded. Apparently you can use the associated metadata to pull up GPS coordinates if your settings are correctly enabled.

yep that's on....

So what do you expect Red Roo to do that you haven't? Surely we should only use the company reps when there is something that can be done by the company but for some reason they haven't done it?

It might be harsh but it was responsibility to look after it. You lost it and appropriate Qantas staff have looked for it. It looks like it is lost and nothing more can be done by Qantas.

Red Roo posted on the first page voluntarily that he would try to help. And asked for a pm.

Surely you have read the entire thread.... on no wait....clearly you haven't.
Red Roo asked if he could help.... that's why I'm sending a message

Missed that, thanks. (Oh and Red Roo might even be a lady. )

And to show how forgetful I am, I even liked it when Red Roo posted.

Geez, I hope the gratification you got in rubbing the OPs nose in it was satisfactory.

The Red Roo I met was no lady.

Think you're getting high on your lofty P1 status HVR.

Ah but there could easily be more than 1 Red Roo!

Which takes us back to the thread discussing that very same thing. And which my original post rather alludes to.
