AirTags are helping airlines dramatically cut down on lost luggage, here’s how

Apple's AirTags are dramatically reducing airline luggage loss, with new data from SITA showing that bags equipped with AirTags experience a 90% reduction in "truly lost" luggage cases. Through Apple's Share Item Location feature launched in iOS 18.2, passengers can generate Find My links that airlines use to track misplaced bags on interactive maps, resulting in a 26% faster recovery time for delayed luggage. Major airlines including United, Delta, American Airlines, and British Airways now support this tracking system.
