One of the best things to come along for traveling hunters in my opinion is the Airline Apps baggage tracking feature. Knowing your gun case was scanned onto the plane is a great reassurance that as you kick back for that first movie and adult beverage all is well with your bags! Just make sure you make note of the tag number for the suitcase versus the gun case so you will know which is which.
The first experience I had with this feature was with Delta. They have a great system and others have followed suit. Finally American has a similar feature after years of junk features that didn’t work.
The problem I have is switching airlines and then the app may not work correctly. For instance on my last Safari I had AA on the first two flights then on to Delta. The AA numbers won’t go in the Delta system.
I wonder if some of you can share your experiences in this regard? What airlines have you used the baggage tracking features and how well did it work for you?
Regards,
Philip

Good Morning x84958
I have read your post about Jamy Traut and your hunt in Caprivi. I am planning such a hunt for 2026, Oct with Jamy.
Just a question , because I will combine Caprivi and Panorama for PG, is the daily rate the same the week long, I mean the one for Caprivi or when in Panorama it will be a PG rate ?
thank you and congrats for your story.
Best regards
Philippe from France
