Thanksgiving is less than a month away, so now\u2019s a good time to start preparing before the rush. Fortunately, Apple\u2019s latest AirTag can help you keep tabs on your luggage and other belongings amid the holiday chaos, and it\u2019s currently down to an all-time low of $23 ($6 off) at Amazon<\/a> and Walmart<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you own an iPhone, the second-gen AirTag is the best Bluetooth tracker<\/a> you can buy. That\u2019s largely due to Apple\u2019s ultra-wideband chip, which enables Precision Finding and guides you to an object\u2019s exact location with on-screen arrows, vibrations, and sounds. The second-gen model can also help you find things faster than the prior generation, as it lets you pick up those directional cues from up to 50 percent farther (it also offers greater Bluetooth range). In our tests<\/a>, that meant faster connections and better performance across multiple floors, which could come in handy if you\u2019ve left something behind in a hotel. You can even follow directions on an Apple Watch Series 9 or later, making it possible to track down your stuff without pulling out your phone.<\/p>\n

The latest AirTag offers a few other perks for travelers, too. You can share it with up to five other people, which is handy if you\u2019re traveling with family members. If your suitcase goes missing, you can also temporarily share its location with participating airlines, including both United<\/a> and Delta<\/a>. That means if your suitcase gets lost, airline staff can see its reported location, which can make it easier to track down and return to you. More conveniently, it runs on a replaceable CR2032 battery designed to last more than a year, so you won\u2019t have to worry about charging it before every trip.<\/p>\n
