Systems, methods and computer-readable media are obtaining location updates of a tracking device via peer to peer communication with other nearby devices where obtaining such update is otherwise not possible. In one aspect, a method includes receiving, at a device, a first location update from a network component; determining, by the device, if a triggering condition is met for determining a second location update; activating, by the device, device-to-device communication for receiving the second location update from nearby devices in vicinity of the device when the triggering condition is met receiving the second location update from at least one of the nearby devices via the device-to-device communication; and sending the second location update to a server for the server to determine an arrival alert for alerting a destination of an amount of time remaining until the device reaches the destination.
