Never got mine by ordering online. Called the Captain's Club and got them in less than a week.

 

I can't call captains club as our booking is with Blue Chip Club. May have to contact them.

Unless you feel your TA should provide you that service you can call the Captains Club desk and order your own luggage tags. I always use a TA and I called the Captains Club desk myself to order our luggage tags for our upcoming Cruise.

No TA. Blue Chip Club is Celebrity's Casino VIP club and they book us as a group booking making it apparently difficult for Captains Club to access our res. Not sure why.;)

No big deal if they don't arrive on time. I printed mine at home and at the check in, the porter stapled the 2 ends together.I tipped the porter a dollar for each suitcase and off we went. Our bags were at our room earlier than ever.

I think you may be confusing making changes to the reservation vs. simply seeing the reservation and sending your luggage tags for the appropriate cabin. It's worth a try to call.

Has X resolved the problem with pax not getting luggage tags? I ordered mine online today.;)

 

Just wondering as you can get your bag tagged at the pier in under 20 seconds why you would bother ordering them online? The paper ones in your Edocs simply tear off almost instantly. I just watch to see the cabin number is correct.

The problem had not been solved as of about 18 days ago. We ordered tags online. After not receiving them 14 days later I called the Captain's Club to re-order.

 

We had a similar experience. Actually ordered twice on-line and after a few weeks called Captains Club and they confirmed there was no record of our order so they placed the order for us. Luggage tags arrived yesterday.

I think that many people, myself included, like the very durable ones that they send to you, as they are difficult to tear off on accident. If Celebrity offers them, and people like them, then it doesn't really matter if it can be done easily at the pier or not.

 

Having cruised 20+ times I feel like the pier area on checkin day is chaotic enough without having to think about even one small thing to be done at that time. Putting my luggage tags on at the hotel and dropping them at the pier already tagged, makes me feel better and more relaxed, and that's important to me.

That's really funny, because after ordering twice online and receiving nothing, I called the captains club today and she told me that the link has been broken for over a month and has not been repaired. Our sailing is two weeks from Saturday and she is hoping to have them to us in time for our departure. And for those who say why bother, I like the more durable ones that you get in the mail, but beyond that it just adds to the excitement of the pre-cruise. We used to get documents mailed to us and that was always a time to do the 'doc dance' and now that they don't do that any longer we are resigned to doing the luggage tag dance if they ever arrive!

Agree. I also prefer the luggage tags that Celebrity mails out. I'd rather just hand my tagged luggage and tip to the porter and be on my way. FWIW...I received our luggage tags in five days when I ordered them from the Captains Club desk for our 3 April Cruise. When sailing RCCL I've had to print our luggage tags at home. No biggie. I put them on our luggage at the hotel prior to heading over to the port. I have never had a self printed luggage tag tear off.

I contacted Captains Club to find out why, all of a sudden, I was getting 3-4 emails a day on filling out our online checkin (which is done). The rep said, ah you must have tried to order luggage tags on line. It's throwing the system out of whack. We both laughed & he's mailing us tags (no more emails either)
