[QUOTE="Blu427, post: 323516, member: 4977"] Air tags are wonderful. 5 years ago Southwest put my golf clubs on the wrong plane. I got them 2 days later, but ever since I have thrown one in the golf bag and I know exactly where my clubs are. So many of the staff have iphones and the signal is transferred to my "find me" app without them realizing their phone sends the signal. News story last year, a Kitchener couple came home from an overseas trip and their luggage didn't arrive on their flight. They had an air tag in it and they knew it was in the Montreal airport. After 2 weeks Air Canada claimed it was lost and gave them the insured value of $3000, but they knew it was in the airport. two weeks later they see it moving down the 401 to Toronto where it stops and they track it to a storage depot in Toronto. They go to the depot and peek in an open door and there is luggage stacked on racks floor to ceiling! Thousands of bags, they called Air Canada who explained it wasn't their storage facility but belonged to the company that buys all Air Canada's lost and found articles. After days of chasing Air Canada they were escorted into the building where they found(thanks to the air tag) their bags and retreived them. They didn't return the $3000 to Air Canada, and they didn't ask for it back. Apparently Air Canada sells the items to this company who then go through every bag looking for valuables to sell and make a profit. I have a number of friends with high end cars who hide them inside in case it's stolen, however I understand there is a scanner that the pros have to detect them in a car after they steal it and remove them. But if your thief isn't sophisticated and is just joyriding you know where he is, and don't have to argue with Onstar. [/QUOTE]
