items left on the ship

I left an iPad on the ship. What are the chances of it being returned to me?

Contact the cruise line Corporate and ask to report a lost item.  Give the ship name, sailing date, your name and stateroom number, and hopefully it was found on board and turned into Guest Services.  You never know - maybe it will be located and returned to you.  But call them and talk with someone - do not rely on an email.

I called Celebrity and they put in a claim with Chargerback. have you heard of this?

Not that specifically, but it sounds like they are at least looking into it.  Did they issue a file number - you should have some way to follow up.  If you booked through a travel agent you may want to contact them to see if they can assist as well.

OP: welcome to Cruise Critic, and I'm sorry this happened to you.  I hope that your iPad is found and returned to you. 

 

Did you have the "Find my iPad'/iPhone" feature activated on your device?  Whether or not you did, if you haven't done so already, I recommend looking at Apple's checklist of what to do when you've lost your device:

I've never heard of Chargerback, but found it through a Google search:

For anyone reading this, I wanted to pass along a tip I read here on CC may years ago: order a set of these great, personalized ID labels (in various sizes) to stick on your electronics and similar portable valuables; if you lose something and someone honest finds it, there's a much greater chance it will be returned to you:

I have my name, cell phone number, and email address on my labels.

That's a great idea!

Your question was unclear, so here are two possibilities. If you left this in your cabin where steward would find it, odds are it would be turned in as found property. You should expect it's return after some hoop jumping. However if you "hid" it in the cabin or was in a black cover inside the safe or even left it in a public area, retrieval will be up to the honesty of whoever finds it.
