Churchill Travel Insurance has teamed up with i-TRAK, a sophisticated suitcase tracking system which sends customers a text message or e-mail to say where their lost belongings have been found, and explaining how they can be retrieved.

If you’re a regular traveller, a service from Churchill Insurance could save you a fortune. Lost baggage costs £1.4billion a year in the UK, the insurer reckons, with 3 million travellers losing their bags for good annually. To help solve the problem, it has teamed up with specialist i-TRAK to launch a new range of high-tech labels. Each one carries a code with a permanent link to the i-TRAK database – baggage handlers can then use this to reunite misplaced luggage.

This tracking device won’t ensure your bag arrives with you at your destination, but it will greatly improve your chances of recovering it should it go missing. The i-TRAK barcode, which is readable by airlines and can be reported found by email, internet or 24 hour phone service, lets you keep your personal details private.

Each tag has a unique code, which the owner registers on the i-TRAK website, with contact details against the code. When the lost luggage is found the finder can then contact i-TRAK through four different channels; SMS text messaging, email, internet, call centre or using the airline’s telex system…..

Around 20 million bags are mislaid annually by airlines. However, help is at hand with a luggage tracking service called i-TRAK (www.i-trak.com). Users attach special luggage tags that are then registered with a code online. If a bag is lost, the owner can check its location on i-TRAK’s website. When it is retrieved the code allows i-TRAK to swiftly inform the owner via a text message and email.

Lost luggage could be a thing of the past thanks to a new tracking system that uses special tags to monitor passengers’ bags. The i-TRAK tags have individual codes, and travellers contact details are logged on the firm’s computer system. If the bags go missing, i-TRAK can then use existing airline tracking systems to find the luggage.
