Ambulady Posted June 20, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Does celebrity still mail luggage tags to your hone? Or is it only pointing the paper ones. On all my other cruises I relieved plastic tags in the mail... just wondering... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted June 20, 2019 #2 Share Posted June 20, 2019 They will mail paper ones to the US and Canada otherwise you need to print them out for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ghstudio Posted June 20, 2019 #3 Share Posted June 20, 2019 (edited) If I might suggest a more accurate answer...On many cruises, you can request that luggage tags be sent to you. They may, or may not, arrive depending on the phase of Mars in the sky, the relative humidity in Miami or some other unknown occurrence. We usually have to request them two or three times and even then often find the one set sent in our held mail when we return. Occasionally, someone in Celebrity HQ decides to try eliminating sending luggage tags and you won't have the option shown. That seems to happen randomly. If you used ChoiceAir, it seems to delay your documents and ability to order luggage tags by about a week....no one seems to know why. Fortunately, you don't really need luggage tags at all.....you can just arrive at the port with your untagged bags and the porters will tag them for you. Enjoy your cruise....and don't fret about the luggage tags. Edited June 20, 2019 by ghstudio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted June 20, 2019 #4 Share Posted June 20, 2019 We have only had a problem getting luggage’s tags once in 24 cruises. We leave next week and have had our tags for 3+ weeks. Getting the luggage tags kicks off our countdown😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George C Posted June 20, 2019 #5 Share Posted June 20, 2019 We had them mail us tags on last years and this years cruise no problem got them early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvcrusn Posted June 20, 2019 #6 Share Posted June 20, 2019 They mail in the US and Canada if you request it. I've had consistent success in calling Captains Club to make the request. The requests made on the website may fall into a black hole somewhere north of Mars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlennaRoseGoes Posted June 21, 2019 #8 Share Posted June 21, 2019 I have seen many threads and comments on CC about the “black hole” of requesting the tags online and how it’s better to call.....but I did the online link about a month ago and received my tags in less than 7 days! But now I’ve been upgraded and they are moot 🤣🤣I have to print out the updated set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy your cruise....and don't fret about the luggage tags. I agree completely about the randomness of getting luggage tags. I requested tags for my upcoming cruise from the Captain’s Club at the beginning of May. Then I took a 2 week trip and found no tags in mail on my return, so I made tag request online. Despite that being 3 weeks ago, no tags have arrived. You would think that. Celebrity could get this process right! I am one of its top cruisers and traveling in one of the top suites, but I was still left to print my tags myself despite 2 requests, both made in a timely fashion. Similar experience in April of this year and September of 2017. However, in intervening time frame, while staying in regular balcony cabins, I did receive tags when requested.

TeaBag Posted June 21, 2019 #10 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Last two cruises, I got two sets. I asked them if I could stay on for the next cruise so as not to waste those lovely colored tags, but they said no.😕 On a serious note, I don't think you can request them until you receive your documents. 41 days or less, before the cruise is what they say.

Cruise a holic Posted June 21, 2019 #11 Share Posted June 21, 2019 I believe you need to be in a suite to have luggage tags sent to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ghstudio Posted June 21, 2019 #12 Share Posted June 21, 2019 Celebrity hasn't thought of that one yet, but I'm sure they'll thank you for the suggestion 🤐. At this time, they still treat everyone the same as far as luggage tags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With other cabins, we printed them out. Edited June 21, 2019 by Cruise a holic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatka Posted June 21, 2019 #15 Share Posted June 21, 2019 For a long time with all lines except for Cunard who sent us real tags we just arrive to the port and ask porter for real, but generic tag, add our names and cabin# and attach to our bags.

We never sail in a suite (except for once) and we always get them by ordering on-line. Last time was in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varoo Posted June 22, 2019 #19 Share Posted June 22, 2019 It is not really necessary to order luggage tags in advance or bother with printing them yourself. Some of the people who post here just enjoy spending their time that way. For several, it is almost like a ritual or hobby. We are among the lazy ones who have no desire to spend any of our time in advance phoning or printing or filling out forms to order luggage tags, so instead we simply get our luggage tagged when we check it in at the port. The porters are so experienced at tagging luggage that they do it much more quickly and efficiently than we can do it ourselves. Oh, in case anyone may be wondering, yes we do take a quick glance at each tag they attach, just to be sure that the stateroom number on it is correct and legible.

Usually do it a few weeks before the cruise and always received them in 3 or 4 days in the mail. Never a problem.

Rare cachouonacruise Posted June 23, 2019 #22 Share Posted June 23, 2019 We’ve sailed X only 3 times and never in a suite. Our TA sends us paper luggage tags, which needs to be folded and somehow attached to the bag. These are my back-up plan. My personal preference goes to the X luggage tags, which are self-adhesive and appear to be better, for example, at handling rain. We have ordered them on line, even once after a late change of cabin, and we always have received them prior to departure. I find these are a nice touch from X, and I hope this service will continue.
