Greetings.

I am about to take a solo trip to Italy in a little over three weeks.

I am a medium-low partial with mild hearing loss.

I am trying to decide whether getting Tile or Apple Air Tags to track my luggage and to use as personal bluetooth beacons in unfamiliar environments would be better for me. Which would you guys recommend and why? 

I have heard that Tile has louder tags, but I am actually wondering which Tiles are currently the loudest.  I am wondering the same about Air Tags. Are there ones that are louder than others?

Do one or both of these vibrate when your phone gets closer to them? Does LIDAR help with any of this? Honestly, because of all these questions, I am thinking about going ahead and just getting both. If I do so, is there any chance of them interfering in any way with each other?

Any help with any or all of these questions would be much apreciated.
