Group airlines Lufthansaincluding Lufthansa, SWISS and Brussels Airlines, are now integrating the technology Apple AirTag to track luggage in real time. Using Apple's "Find My" function, passengers can share the location of their luggage with customer service. This innovation facilitates the return of lost luggage, enhancing travelers' peace of mind. After a brief ban, compatibility with AirTag devices has been restored, enabling accurate tracking with a durable, easy-to-use electronic device, enhancing the travel experience.
Security and peace of mind with Apple technology
One of the main concerns of travellers is the loss of luggage during air transfers. With the introduction of Apple AirTag technology for baggage management, Lufthansa enhances passenger comfort and safety. Thanks to Apple's "Find My" application, passengers can now track the position of their luggage in real time directly from their smartphone.
Innovation at the cutting edge of technology
Location information is shared smoothly and accurately, providing greater visibility over the journey of your belongings. The system not only reassures passengers concerned about the safety of their baggage, but also facilitates management by airlines by increasing transparency. This is a significant step forward in airport logistics.
Apple AirTag and its aeronautical compatibility
Although AirTags run on lithium-ion batteries, Lufthansa has confirmed that these devices are permitted on board its aircraft. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) regulates the use of electronic devices, but effective coordination between Apple, Lufthansa and other partners has ensured their safe use. AirTags look set to become an essential part of air travel.
Greater responsiveness in the event of lost luggage
In the event of loss or delay, AirTag revolutionizes the way airlines handle customer complaints. With the ability to automatically share a location link with the customer service from Lufthansa, the process becomes faster and more efficient, making baggage returns easier for passengers. Find out how this speeds up the process on Flywest.
More secure luggage that's easier to find
With over 36 million pieces of baggage reported lost each year, improved baggage tracking was essential. And for those skeptics who fear loss, Japan's Kansai airport proves that with effective management, achieving zero baggage loss for 30 years is possible.

Peaceful travel with Lufthansa and Apple AirTag
Thanks to the new technology and its functionalities, travelers can finally enjoy their flight with peace of mind, knowing that their belongings are close at hand. This integration promises to significantly reduce the stress associated with the possibility of lost luggage, while increasing overall customer satisfaction.
