Track missing bags with Air India and Apple AirTags

Air India has launched a new partnership with Apple to enhance baggage tracking by integrating Apple’s AirTag technology into its existing systems.

The collaboration connects AirTag’s location-sharing capabilities with Air India’s mobile app and website, allowing passengers to track misplaced luggage more efficiently.

Travellers using Apple devices can generate a location link for their AirTag through the Find My app and submit it to Air India along with a lost baggage report.

Once shared, airline staff can view an interactive map of the item’s location, updated in real time, until the luggage is recovered or the tracking expires after seven days.

This move makes Air India the first Indian airline to adopt Apple’s ‘Share Item Location’ feature, joining a global group that includes British Airways, Lufthansa, and Virgin Atlantic.

The new system is compatible with iPhones, iPads, and Macs running the latest software versions, offering Indian users a smarter way to stay connected with their belongings throughout their journey.
