Non Existent Baggage Tracking

Emirates claims to have end-to-end baggage tracking. You can find this in the Emirates app.

It tells you to go to My Trips and access "Baggage Status".

One small detail... no such option exists.

I did find several links about how this great new capability was developed in house at Emirates.

Ho ho ho.

It seems to be a very patchy feature. On a few occasions I have received a notification in the app to the effect that my baggage has been loaded on board. But it has never persisted throughout the trip (including connections in DXB). IIRC the initial notification was always at LGW.
