Bag tracking is taken to the next level by this smart suitcase tracker. The compact cellular gadget was designed to be tucked into your luggage, keeping you connected to the status of your possessions during air travel from check-in to baggage claim. But it doesn't just tell you where it is.
The GSM-enabled tracking device has a SIM card inside that can communicate with the Smart Unit app before takeoff and after landing. The gizmo is actually capable of detecting if your bag is being opened, and if somebody else is walking off with it at your destination. Mobile alerts can be set up for each of these scenarios, in addition to notifying you when your duffle is on its way to the pickup carousel. This smart suitcase tracker affords more confidence when checking baggage at the airport, making tourists less anxious in transit.
