In 2023, approximately 2 million items were left at airports according to The Unclaimed Baggage Found Report, with only 10% of lost items being found. Misplacing items can be stressful and time-consuming, contributing to people spending on average 2.5 days a year looking for lost items. However, new technology could significantly reduce the amount of time spent on these tasks. Bluetooth tracker company, Tile, has put together data from the travel industry, news reports and product information, illustrating how these emerging technologies are transforming the way we handle lost items.
