Cathay Pacific introduces Apple's Find My integration for improved baggage tracking

To utilize this feature, passengers must generate a Share Item Location link through the Find My app on their Apple device and send it via email to the airline's baggage services team at their destination airport. The shared link will be used by global airport teams to locate and return missing bags promptly.

The sharing of location data will end automatically once the customer retrieves their bag. Customers also have control over stopping the sharing at any time, and it expires after seven days for privacy reasons.

Apple's Find My network supports this feature through its extensive network of devices that help detect lost items using Bluetooth technology. The system ensures privacy as all processes are encrypted end-to-end, preventing unauthorized access to location data.

Travelers wishing to use this new function should ensure their Apple devices are updated with iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2, or macOS 15.2 or later versions.
