We are in Greenland right now. We flew SEA to KEF to JAV. My husbands bag made it to KEF, but not to JAV. They held several people’s bags as the plane was small and it was at capacity for weight. That was last Saturday morning. We figured it would arrive the next day, but there were no flights to here on Sunday. So long story short there were numerous emails back and forth with the airline. They said they would not send it and to just wait until we arrive there Friday night.
All of our bags have AirTags in them.
Out of curiosity, just yesterday my husband looked to see where the AirTag said it was. It was here in Ilulissat! The airline here does not deliver bags to you even though it was their doing.
So we took a taxi to the airport to retrieve it. The person helping my husband kept insisting it wasn’t there etc but my husband was just as insistent and had the man follow him with the app. Yes, that is the only way they found the bag.
We had all of my husbands cold weather clothing in there along with some of mine. I am pretty sure that the pants he has been wearing for 6 days will not get worn for quite some time lol.
Anyway, just wanted to share a real story and how the AirTag saved the day!
