My luggage “appears to be on the move… it’s at a McDonalds? The plot thickens,” the traveler wrote in a now-viral thread tracking her bag using an Apple AirTag.
The frustrated flyer tried to contact United Airlines for several days to be reunited with her bag.She claims that the airline insisted that her bag was a delivery distribution center despite her AirTag leading to a residential apartment complex.“I’d just like everyone to know that @united has lost track of my bag and is lying about it,” Szybalathread started on January 1 with photos of the supposed emptied bags found by the dumpsters.
After several days, Szybala was excited to see her bag on the move until she watched it travel to McDonald’s and then back to the apartment complex.“MAJOR UPDATE: for the first time since Friday my AirTag appears to be on the move… it’s at a McDonalds? The plot thickens…” she tweeted later that day with a screenshot showing the alleged location of her bag.
The frustrated flyer returned to the apartments the next day when she saw her bag was tracked there again and connected with a local news crew and a resident of the apartment complex who saw her viral tweets.“The other bags [by the dumpsters] were gone. The resident who came to help said they’d seen someone taking them inside,” she told CNN.
She was glad to learn that all of her belongings remained locked away but is insisting that United Airlines investigate the situation and publicly announce their findings.Szybala said she was finally reconnected with her lost luggage when she called the delivery driver and met him at his unmarked car in his civilian clothes near the apartment complex. She was happy to discover that her bag was still locked shut with her clothing, souvenirs and AirTag neatly packed away.
