wolfganghowell Posted March 24, 2009 #1 Share Posted March 24, 2009 We switched cabins after receiving our documents. So our luggage tags have the old number on them. We won't be receiving new tags. So we will put our new cabin number on the old tags ( I guess with tape and a sharpie :)) Has anyone done this before - and was your luggage delayed or delivered to your original cabin? I see that they are barcoded and was hoping that perhaps the barcode was tied to your reservation and therefore the bags would automatically be re-directed to the new cabin.

ianturner Posted March 24, 2009 #2 Share Posted March 24, 2009 You should fill out new ones at the dock, my wife & I have had to do this in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfganghowell Posted March 24, 2009 Author #3 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Aah - thanks. I'm guessing the porters have them available for us to fill out? We always get there early so that should be easy for us to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted March 24, 2009 #4 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Yes, the porters will have luggage tags available. All you have to do is write your last name and cabin number on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, the porters at the pier will have bag tags just get them to tag your bags. We get our docs elec. so usually get tags at the pier. Never had a problem. Enjoy your cruise.

biomedbob Posted March 24, 2009 #6 Share Posted March 24, 2009 We got a cabin change after giving our bags to the porters. No big deal! I just checked back occasionaly to the original cabin assignment and picked up my bags as they were delivered. Don't sweat the small stuff. Improvise! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We switched cabins last year after we had received our tags. I just printed out some new numbers on sticky labels on the computer, then used clear packing tape to make sure they stayed put. We got our luggage within an hour of getting to our cabin last year, so I would say it worked!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfganghowell Posted March 24, 2009 Author #8 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Thanks for all the help everyone. And yea - I don't sweat the small stuff. I'm just an organized wench - I love getting that luggage asap and getting unpacked before muster drill. Anything I can do on my end to make that remotely possible is a good thing. :) Thanks again to all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year it apparently sat in the wrong place, and our cabin steward finally went to track it down for us. We got it around 6:00!:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dphipps2 Posted March 25, 2009 #10 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Same thing happened to us but we didn't see our luggage after we left the hotel so no chance of getting tags from the porters. We just wrote on them with sharpies and it worked just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
