Wondering what you can do if you happen to carry items prohibited or restricted on flights? Beijing Capital International Airport ("Capital Airport" for short) provides a temporary storage service for security-restricted items for all departing passengers, whether on domestic or international flights.

During security screenings at the Capital Airport, passengers carrying items not permitted on board but who wish to keep them, such as valuable lighters, alcohol, non-controlled cutting tools, and cosmetics and personal care products in containers over 100 milliliters, can use the airport's temporary storage service. In general, items can be stored for up to 30 days. For a detailed list of such items, check the Self-Service Security Check feature on the Capital Airport's mini-program or ask security staff on site.

For these power banks that do not meet the regulations, passengers can choose to mail them at express delivery counters before security checks or store them temporarily at passenger service centers. It should be noted that the temporary storage period for a power bank is seven days. The Capital Airport has two passenger service centers, one on the west side of the first floor of the parking building for Terminal 3, and the other on the basement level of Terminal 2.

In addition to temporary storage services, the passenger service centers also provide lost-and-found services for travelers. If you lose items at the Capital Airport, you can call the airport service hotline at +86-10-96158 and select the "Lost and Found" option, or visit the Passenger Service Center of Terminal 2 or 3.
