 On the limits of AirTagged luggage - elgan.com

One of @6211bb94's suitcases is stuck in Dallas, and the airline doesn't care if an AirTag can show them exactly where it is. Is this Iberia Air's attitude, or do all airlines ignore customers' tracking info?

 @e1685c12 @6211bb94 This sounds like Spanish bureaucracy more than anything else. It should be mentioned that there's a profound sociological difference between our cultures. Spain is very much a High Context culture where here in the States we're in the opposite spectrum as Low Context. When we expect our bureaucracies to be attentive to our needs and transfer that attitude to Spanish bureaucracy, it can be jarring for both sides. Culture clash! Mike is a very experienced traveler though.
