I was miserable thinking that we would start our trip with only half a tandem arriving in Rome with us to begin our trip. Alas, upon arrival in Rome, both boxes appeared at baggage pickup. Both Airtags worked and reported their locations on the return trip home so there was some sort of glitch on the outbound journey. In the end, all was well, but Airtags are not perfect.
The current AirTags have limited range and sensitive to placement so there are times they drop off the grid for periods of time. I’ve had similar instances, however you can quickly tell by when the last time the tag was located. This is only the first generation of this product, and I’m sure improvements will be substantial. Compared to any other product on the market. This technology has been extremely helpful and reassuring.
