It will work quite well on the inside.

The extra protection afforded certainly outweighs any decrease in range.

I just want to know where I put the airtag with my bag...inside...attached by tag? Once I get the Airtagged programmed...what do I do with it. Put it inside my luggage or do I need a tag to attach to luggage either outside or inside?
