    The tracking device is designed by Delta Airlines and allows people to keep a check on their items on their mobile phone.

    Touted to prevent a lot of hassle, it can help customers to monitor their bags at any given time. The passengers can keep a track on Fly Delta app and opt to receive push notifications.
     
    According to Daily Star, the product testing has been positive so far. It has come out with 99.9 percent success rate, ensuring accurate loading and routing.
     
    Currently, the tracking device is being used on the routes from Heathrow to the US. However, it is expected to be rolled out across more hubs in the future.
