Self-Service for Delayed or Damaged Baggage

Do you wish to report your delayed or damaged baggage within the first 5 days after your flight? Use our self-service. Additionally, the self-service provides the option to receive updates on your existing case, and you can find FAQs for quick answers.

Airtag baggage tracking

Every lost suitcase is one too many and we want to tackle that in an innovative way. This is why we have a possibility to share the information about your delayed baggage with us if you have an Apple AirTag in it.

To share the location of your AirTag or Find My network accessory with us, you can first generate a Share Item Location link in the Find My app on their iPhone, iPad, or Mac. We have made it possible for you to easily add this link to the existing online process for reporting lost baggage. For your privacy and security, location sharing will automatically end as soon as a you are reunited with your bag, can be stopped by you at any time, and will automatically expire after seven days.

Share Item Location is built on the Apple Find My network, a crowdsourced network of over one billion Apple devices that use Bluetooth wireless technology to detect missing devices or items nearby and report their approximate location back to the owner. The entire process is end-to-end encrypted and anonymous, so no-one else, not even Apple or Find My Network accessory manufacturers, can view an item’s location or information.

Follow the steps below to share the link with us:

  • Within the Find My app, locate an item to be shared with Marabu
  • In the item menu, select “Share Item Location”
  • Select “Continue” to generate a sharable link
  • Go to our Baggage Self Service
  • In the Self Service choose “Manage My Bag” and login
  • On the home screen, choose “Find My Item Location”
  • Select “Add a Find My Item Location”
  • Paste in the link you copied from the Find My app
  • The link is there and can be verified by clicking on it

If you wish to remove or edit the link, follow the steps:

  • Go to the Find My Item Location page in the Baggage Self Service
  • The link is displayed there and can be edited using the pencil icon or removed using the X icon
  • Once removed a new link can still be added if needed
