Micmac Posted October 13, 2010 #26 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Between the three households of us that are cruising in Dec - 3 magazines received and not a luggage tag amongst us... Guess we aren't "select"! Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liv4cruzin Posted October 13, 2010 #27 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Got mine today too. They are classy looking; & they even give you instructions on how to cut the "print your own" luggage tags to fit. Looks like there's not a lot of rhyme or reason to who is or isn't getting this little gift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted October 13, 2010 #28 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Got mine today. Two cruises yet this year, but they are are on Celebrity and Cunard. But I think there is a HAL cruise in my future next year. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randyk47 Posted October 13, 2010 #29 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Received our Mariner magazine and tags in yesterday's mail. Our next cruise is in late March 2011 so obviously a cruise before the end of the year is not the criteria or HAL has really bad records. :) They're a little on the lightweight side so I'll only use them for cruises and only put them on when we're on our way to the terminal.

jhannah Posted October 13, 2010 #30 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Nothing here yet. Maybe today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chloes nana Posted October 13, 2010 #31 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I guess that means I won't be getting any as I don't have any more cruises booked this calendar year...:( I don't have a cruise booked until Feb 2011.. so guess that isn't true since I received mine in the mail yesterday.

Rare Roz Posted October 13, 2010 #32 Share Posted October 13, 2010 I received mine yesterday (Oct. 12) and just got back from a September cruise. Don't have any other HAL cruises booked at the moment. Roz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliaschief Posted October 13, 2010 #33 Share Posted October 13, 2010 We received our Mariners yesterday and the tags are very nice. I will also compliment Holland America for having a much improved Mariners Magazine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yaya&Papu Posted October 13, 2010 #34 Share Posted October 13, 2010 We got our magazine and luggage tags in yesterday's mail. The tags are very nice and colorful. So happy to get them!!! Usually our mail goes to our son's home in Texas because our mail got so screwed up after Katrina in 2005. Finally have been able (after many tries by us and our TA) to get travel related mail back to our home address. We are 3 star mariners but did not get a pin on our cruise in August. Our next cruise is to Alaska in June 2011. By the end of that cruise, I'll be just a few days short of 4 star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted October 13, 2010 #35 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Be sure to ask for your 3 star pins when aboard. Sometimes it's easier to go to the office and request they deliver them to you while on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittycat2009 Posted October 13, 2010 #36 Share Posted October 13, 2010 We received the Mariner Magazine yesterday, but no luggage tags. Guess we don't rate high enough yet. ;) Need to plan that next cruise. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tcook052 Posted October 13, 2010 #38 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Looks like there's not a lot of rhyme or reason to who is or isn't getting this little gift. Agree. I checked and have snail mail checked under my profile but nothing received yet. I do have a bright orange HAL bag tag I was given somewhere along the line but having a new type that lets you insert your "print your own" tag would be a nice update so will wait & see.

highland2 Posted October 13, 2010 #43 Share Posted October 13, 2010 We just got them and our next booked cruise isn't until March 2011. :) I emailed Holland this week asking about the luggage tags. We are *Mariners who have a cruise booked Nov. 13th. We received the Mariner magazine, but did not get any luggage tags. Holland replied that they printed a limited number of tags and were only giving them out to **Mariners and above who are sailing from now till Dec. 10th. I don't want to quibble about luggage tags, but at least be truthful with your customers. :confused: Looks like there may be several people who received tags but do not have a cruise booked in Holland's time frame. Too bad, they would have been nice to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docksider21 Posted October 13, 2010 #44 Share Posted October 13, 2010 Got my magazine and new tags yesterday! Love them. And I don't have anything booked with HAL. I think I have some standard blue HAL tags, too. But these are way cool. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FRANKIEDNYC Posted October 13, 2010 #45 Share Posted October 13, 2010 :) Got ours today. Very nice and colorful like miniature posters. Our next HAL booking isn't until Nov 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonlight Beach Posted October 13, 2010 #46 Share Posted October 13, 2010 We are *** and received ours in yesterday's mail. Last cruise was April 2010, with none :( booked in the future (yet). Go figure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots have reported that they aren't booked or aren't advanced Mariners or both so the reasons don't make sense. Oh well....as somebody already said, glad the home office isn't actually running the ships. :rolleyes::eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boccismom Posted October 13, 2010 #48 Share Posted October 13, 2010 We're booked on the Zuiderdam on April 12,2011. We got both the Mariners Magazine and the tags today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
