A four year old girl has been reunited with her favourite teddy, thanks to the kindness of airport staff at Toronto's Pearson International Airport.

Phoebe Steel and her family were returning home after a trip to the UK, when she realised she had left her beloved teddy RaRa at the airport.

Although Phoebe's mum tried to calm her daughter, she was understandably upset.

"On the plane especially, I'm trying to explain we can't go back, it's not a car, right, you can't turn around," her mum, Jennifer Steel told CBCNews.

Steel contacted the airport through Facebook, but admitted she thought RaRa was a "goner".

But that couldn't have been further from the truth, in fact RaRa had been on an epic adventure of his own.

Images posted to Facebook showed RaRa enjoying a ride through the airport scanner and making some new friends.

RaRa was then sent home to Phoebe, along with a travelling buddy, a new bear called Pearson.
