AirTag helps a woman get her stuff back from Jamaica after losing it on a domestic flight in Canada

Who do you call when you take a domestic flight in Canada, but your suitcase ends up in Jamaica? Well, not the Ghostbusters, even if a detour like that qualifies as paranormal activity.

Perhaps you could contact the airline that lost your suitcase in the first place. Maybe – but then again, you might run into stubborn employees who deny your complaints.

Well, that leaves you with Apple as a last resort – and the AirTag proves once again that when the ball goes up, it saves the day.

This is what Lorraine Pedersen can say, and the story she told Business Insider confirms this.

Lorraine was traveling from Toronto to Winnipeg in late October on a WestJet flight. When she arrived, her suitcase was nowhere to be found – an extremely unpleasant experience, especially since Lorraine was on a business trip. “All my clothes were gone,” she said.

She was conscious enough to have put an AirTag tracker on her suitcase. That’s how she knew her luggage was in Kingston, Jamaica. She immediately informed WestJet of the diversion of her business, but they disputed this information and said it was not in Jamaica because there were no flights from Toronto to Kingston that day.

“They kept saying it wasn’t their fault, that they didn’t get there because they didn’t fly in,” Pedersen continues.

When no one believed her, she took matters into her own hands and contacted the Norman Manley International Airport in Kingston and discovered that her bag had been transported on a Swoop flight (Swoop is a subsidiary of WestJet).

Pedersen said her bag was stuck in Jamaica for two weeks after Westjet rejected her request to fly it to Toronto, where she lives. Later, when she collected it, she found that her luggage appeared to have been broken into. Several of his belongings were missing.

“I was very hurt to know that my bag had been searched and things stolen while he was in Jamaica,” Pedersen said.
