As long as that phone is connected to the internet, it will then send your phone's location to Samsung's servers so you can still use the tracking feature.

Starting in One UI 3.0, you can still track your Galaxy phone even when it's in airplane mode. Not only does this make it harder for police to track the phone through cell tower triangulation, but it also disables security features the person you stole it from may have implemented - for instance, Samsung's Find My Mobile service.

To use SmartThings Find, ‘Allow this phone to be found’ in Find My Mobile settings must be turned on. 
You can also locate lost devices using the SmartThings Find feature within the SmartThings app. The connected phone or tablet’s Offline finding settings will also be applied to your Galaxy Watch and Buds. The Offline Finding feature for your Galaxy Watch and Buds can be enabled within the Galaxy Wearable app. Additional devices will be added in the future. Offline finding is currently supported on Galaxy smartphones and tablets with at least Android 8, Galaxy Watch3, Galaxy Watch4, Galaxy Watch5, and Galaxy Buds Live, Galaxy Buds Pro, Galaxy Buds2 and Galaxy Buds2 Pro, and all types of Galaxy SmartTag series. The device must be turned on and logged in to your Samsung account. Support services may vary by country/region/carrier.
