Briar Patch Posted December 18, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 18, 2017 First time on Norwegian - Can someone tell me what size luggage tags they have? I ordered the plastic sleeves for Royal Caribbean and Carnival. Royal Caribbean has thinner tags ... Carnival a little wider. Can anyone give me insight on Norwegian's? Thanks in advance.

NCL's tags are wide, pretty close to Carnival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can print them yourself and with the correct folding no problem. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briar Patch Posted December 18, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Yes, I always print them myself. I just wasn't sure which tags to give to a friend who is sailing with us. My edocs aren't yet ready to print, so I couldn't see..... It's our first NCL cruise. Usually go Royal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norway olin Posted December 18, 2017 #5 Share Posted December 18, 2017 printed out directly they are 3 x 4 1/8. This is without any attempting to resize in any way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BirdTravels Posted December 18, 2017 #7 Share Posted December 18, 2017 We take a few minutes to manually resize to fit our narrow luggage tag holder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owlhelm Posted December 18, 2017 #8 Share Posted December 18, 2017 We always make ours up, laminate them, punch a hole and attach with a cable tie. Not that I'm paranoid about them coming off or anything... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wdsted Posted December 18, 2017 #9 Share Posted December 18, 2017 The better option is to just hand your bags to a porter, have them tag your bags, verify the cabin number they wrote, and forget about the printing, taping, laminating, cutting, etc. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briar Patch Posted December 18, 2017 Author #11 Share Posted December 18, 2017 We cruise a lot. Use the plastic tag sleeves with the metal loops. If you're never used them, they're awesome. We've just never cruised Norwegian and I didn't know what size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briar Patch Posted December 18, 2017 Author #12 Share Posted December 18, 2017 I would never expect a Porter to do something that is my responsibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bootman4U Posted December 18, 2017 #13 Share Posted December 18, 2017 What? they didn't send you some in the mail? We are sailing on the Escape on 6 January and ours arrived a couple of weeks ago. Have you ever TRIED to remove one of those tags? pretty hard to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandbob Posted December 18, 2017 #14 Share Posted December 18, 2017 I print a paper copy, fold it as directed, then use 1 strip of clear packing tape over the tag. I fold it through the handle, staple it together at home, and haven't had a tag come off in about 50 cruises, most with airline flights to port. Keeping it simple works!

Briar Patch Posted December 18, 2017 Author #15 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Yes, I like to keep it simple as well. I never have to take the tag holders off of my luggage. All I have to do is slip the paper inside. I've never had one come off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trivia addict Posted December 18, 2017 #16 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Norwegian tags are wider than Royal’s. If you use the plastic sleeves as I do, you will need a different size. I have a set for both lines. On Amazon the website will tell you which tag size to buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briar Patch Posted December 18, 2017 Author #17 Share Posted December 18, 2017 I did. I bought the wider ones. In already had the ones for royal and love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimsig Posted December 18, 2017 #18 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Similar to a PP we cover ours with packing tape and staple them on. Though that was before I got the Cruise Critic luggage tag holders :) Also be safe when I cruise I also put an 8-1/2 x 11 piece of paper in each checked bag with the following as an example: SMITH CABIN: 10567 CONFIRM: 5DF&HT Cell: 555-555-1234 I do the same with any bag I check with the airline as well but include the flight routing and number 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
