# Bag-Tracking Beacons BeeQyn is a Smart Luggage Tracker That Keeps Travelers Informed By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2015-02-24 | World Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luggage-tracker References: [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1127763525/beeqyn-an-efficient-and-empowering-tracker-for-lug) & [beeqyn](http://www.beeqyn.com/) Since there's nothing worse than being separated from your bags on a trip, BeeQyn is a [luggage tracker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luggage-losers) that goes above and beyond to keep travelers in the loop. Although the bee-shaped [baggage tag](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airtag) works nicely as a way to identify a personal item, this high-tech attachment does so much more. BeeQyn works with an app to tell travelers when their bags will arrive and the estimated time of a ride to ensure that leaving the airport is as hassle-free as possible. Playing off of the bee-themed inspiration, one of the neatest features of BeeQyn is that a traveler's phone will buzz when their luggage is nearby. Voice and on-screen notifications are also available as alternate forms of alerts. Since travelers can't always rely on an airport to ensure that bags will arrive where they should be, this solution puts power into the hands of passengers. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 52% | Activity: 77% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [World](https://www.trendhunter.com/world) > [Travel](https://www.trendhunter.com/travel) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Smart Luggage Tracking:** The use of mobile app tracking systems in luggage management presents an opportunity for businesses to offer personalized, hassle-free travel experiences to customers. - **Location-based Notifications:** Incorporating hyper-accurate location data for reuniting passengers with luggage is a disruptive innovation opportunity for logistics management companies. - **Intuitive Baggage Tags:** Creating innovative, interactive and easy-to-use luggage tags that integrate with mobile apps is an area of opportunity for luggage accessories companies. ### Where This Applies - **Airline Industry:** Adoption of smart luggage-tracking systems has the potential to improve customer satisfaction, increase operational efficiency and decrease the costs related to lost baggage claims. - **Mobile App Industry:** Integrating hyper-accurate location data with mobile apps used for luggage tracking presents opportunities for developing innovative B2B and B2C mobile app solutions. - **Logistics Management Industry:** Integrating location-based systems into logistics management workflows is a disruptive innovation opportunity for companies looking to offer faster and more reliable transportation services for businesses and individuals. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Location-Tracking Luggage Locks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taglock-travel-lock.md) - [Connected Luggage Tags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knog-scout-travel.md) - [Discreet Trackable Suitcases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qantas-x-july.md) - [Sleek Compact Tracker Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pebblebee-tag.md) - [Luggage Tracking Safety Technologies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lost-luggage-tracker.md) - [In-App Baggage-Tracking Features](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-canada-mobile-app.md) - [Trackable Smart Luggage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casesafe.md) - [Trackable Travel Luggage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tag-smart-collection-by-samsara.md) - [Mini Luggage-Compatible Trackers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airtag.md)
