If I lost iPad in Airplane Mode, should I set it to erase?

I left my iPad on an airplane in airplane mode, so find my phone doesn't see it. I set it to lost phone mode, but now after about 3 weeks it hasn't showed up as having been connected to the internet. Is there an advantage in setting up the "Erase" mode, so when it is connected to internet it erases, although that would disable my ability to track it. If it goes into erase mode, does it display my "lost" information on the screen first? It should be locked whenever it is found, so I'm not too worried about it being useful to anyone unless they are a real capable hacker.

iPad Mini Wi-Fi + Cellular, iOS 11.0.3
