Csardas Posted May 3, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Hi all Just idle curiosity but when do they usually make the labels available? We're 56 days before cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve ch Posted May 3, 2019 #2 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Usually a couple of weeks before sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tourist1292 Posted May 3, 2019 #3 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Wait for another week. You will see your booking updated when it is within 49 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmas gran Posted May 3, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 3, 2019 We in the UK do not get luggage labels sent out--we have to use the ones produced with your cruise docs on line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkgourmet Posted May 3, 2019 #5 Share Posted May 3, 2019 (edited) We left on a cruise 3 weeks ago. Our online luggage tags had the wrong room number. I didn't even bother printing them. They did it when we checked in. Would have taken me longer to print it out and fold it properly. I NEVER get this big deal made about luggage tags. Heck, nobody gets luggage tags for plane flights ahead of time. And the cruise lines should absolutely stop mailing these things. Ridiculous waste of money and labor.

The nice thing is, you don't have to request them if you don't like them :) I actually love the day y luggage tags come in the mail. It signals "vacation & adventure" to me. :) Kind of like back in the day when they would mail you the nice fat package of cruise docs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can order the tags when the web site tells you your cruise documents are available. They will be a place on the screen to order them. It usually is about seven weeks out, give or take.

Pickels Posted May 3, 2019 #9 Share Posted May 3, 2019 I agree with Cruise Kitty--= loved when the luggage tags arrived in the mail--it meant the cruise date is getting close! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkgourmet Posted May 4, 2019 #10 Share Posted May 4, 2019 I get the excitement. Nevertheless, it's a waste of money and paper. Eventually, the industry will discontinue the practice like they are doing with straws, plastic water bottles, etc. to each his/her own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
