TL;DR
A woman was able to track down her stolen AirPods using the "Find My" app on her phone after they were taken from her jacket on a flight through San Francisco International Airport. After nearly two weeks of little to no assistance, she was able to get the AirPods back thanks to a detective working at the airport. The headphones were allegedly taken by a contractor who loaded food onto the plane. United Airlines has agreed to pay for a new pair of AirPods and to give her 5,000 airline miles as an apology.
