Apple will make it possible to easily and securely share the location of AirTags or items within the ‘Find My’ network with airlines and similar entities.
This new feature named ‘Share Item Location’ will become available for all users with an iPhone Xs or later, starting with the iOS 18.2 beta. The shared location information will become invalid once the item is returned to the user’s possession, and owners can stop sharing at any time, with the share automatically expiring after seven days. Access to this information will be limited to a select few, requiring authentication through an Apple account or a partner’s email address.
Airlines that will support this feature include Aer Lingus, Air Canada, Air New Zealand, Austrian Airlines, British Airways, Brussels Airlines, Delta Airlines, Eurowings, Iberia Airlines, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Lufthansa, Qantas Airways, Singapore Airlines, Swiss International Air Lines, Turkish Airlines, United Airlines, Virgin Atlantic, and Vueling Airlines.
