Luggage Tags

I think for every situation - for every ship, for every porter, and for every port of embarkation - it’s going to be different. I can only imagine the porters standing at Cape Liberty in the dead of winter when it’s 10° outside and the wind blowing, that they are grateful to those who have already put on their luggage tags, and that they don’t have to remove their thick winter gloves and pull out a marker to write out the passenger’s information.

Ah , good point there. I only cruise spring and fall. Only cruised out of Cape Liberty once and wont be going back there.

The flight from Toronto was quick to Newark , but the taxi ride to the pier wasnt. Traffic was heavy and the cab was an old police vehicle. Did the Anthem to Bermuda cruise and the Atlantic was rough.

I will fly direct to Florida and cruise from there. Fort Lauderdale preferably but Miami is fine .

I know they put Oasis there now which is my favorite class , but i will still go to Florida .

Agree 100%, this is one of today’s projects

I just ordered some of these. Finally got our luggage tags. We have now printed them. 
thank you to everyone for your suggestions.

I love taking my printed, full color, glorious luggage paper tickets into work and hanging them on the giant cork bulletin board above my desk for a few days - just reminding everybody there that they’re NOT going on a cruise. LOL 🤣🤣🤣

Love it! 😁

I prefer not to let anyone know my house will be empty for a week. You never really  know who you work with or who they associate with.

Don’t care. If someone wants to rob MY place, please by all means have at it. I’m insured. But, I’ve got all of my building neighbors watching the place, someone stopping to feed the cat twice a day, I’m leaving all of the TV’s on (so that cat doesn’t get bored) and it looks like someone is home, my living room lights are set on two different timers, and my Echo Dot is set 6x a day to go off to music by Michael Jones. And, I live in a very safe, very quiet neighborhood.

Not worried. At all. 😎

Ok a quick question.  In the edocs suggested color printer for t luggage tags but didn't sound  like it has to be.  Has anyone ever used none color ones  luggage tags . We don't have a color printer at home the one I have access to at work isn't color.  So just want to see if anyone as used ones not in color tags

We used black and white tags in August for Adventure. Everything arrived safely at our cabin.

This now also makes me wonder, since I haven’t cruised in quite some time, if the tags are also COLOR coded by decks?

Thank you if I can't find some place convenient to print them in color we will just use black and white we always tip well so I am sure the will at least make it on the ship.

Dont need color .  The porters make them in black and white . Gets luggage to the cabin every time.

I have a non color laser printer that i used when i was working. Never had a need for a color type.

They are color coded, but, I don't believe it's by decks.  They do suggest printing in color, but, as others have said, they work just fine if you do not.

Black and white work just fine.  No worries.  Enjoy your cruise!  🙂

I'll chime in with the others and say that we've had no trouble at all with monochrome tags. No worries at all.

You can always get a box of crayons and colorize them yourself.  😉

Make sure to tell your friend they will need to stay within the lines when coloring. 😂

So if my printer is acting up, where/how do I print my luggage tags ??? Last time we cruised, I thought they mailed them to us.

That was a long time ago - no longer the case for years. If you can't print them before the sailing, just have the porter put one on for you.

The porters at the pier will have blank ones they fill in and attach.   Or can you borrow someone's printer?
