If you’re heading overseas it would be remiss not to secure your baggage as much as possible, and since their inception in 2021 the Apple AirTag ($49) has been the most popular way.
The micro chip is to be placed inside a bag and allows its owner to see exactly where it goes on its journey - so if anything goes awry on your travels you can track it down.
The devices have a year-long battery life so it’s important to keep track of how much juice is left in it before you set off on your travels.

One of the AirTags can be purchased for $49 off Amazon or you can secure a four pack for $158.94.
The gadget has saved countless explorers from losing their keys, backpacks and even young children, and it’s as easy as attaching the circular tag to these items, or people.
Those that have taken the plunge already have called it an absolute “lifesaver”.
“These came very quickly and were so easy to set up with my iPhone. You pull the plastic tab and have the phone screen unlocked and it will automatically ask if you want to set it up,” one man wrote on Amazon.
“You can use the Find My app to make the AirTag ring out when you can’t find it but know it’s in the room. I use one for my wallet, keys and will be using them for my luggage when I head overseas.“Such an invaluable tool in my eyes to have around.”
It’s particularly useful for those who often misplace smaller pieces of equipment.
“I’ve used a few different key finders as I am always losing my phone, wallet, keys and glasses and this product has changed my life. I love that this product gives you close range directions to find the exact location,” said another man.
One woman even popped an AirTag in the glovebox of her car so she could find it again in the carpark of a shopping centre.
“It helps when your vehicle looks identical to others,” she added.
