Luggage tags

[sddsddean]

Just printed off our tags for our cruise in Nov. Noticed it says " Do not remove. This label is for embarkation and disembarkation". How does that work? The ship can't know what time I want to get off (as is the case with most passengers). Anyone any experience of this? Don't they do 'disembarkation' tags any more?

To the best of my knowledge they haven’t given out disembarkation luggage labels for a few years now. When you get off at your allotted time your baggage will be in the baggage hall in deck order. Seems to work well.

Thanks for that. They've obviously changed the system since we were last on P&O.

Perhaps so they can identify your deck enabling them to organise cases by deck in the luggage pick up area.  

They used to issue coloured tags with your disembarkation info but by retaining your embarkation tags it would avoid using new tags for disembarkation.  (We came across this system with another cruise line - anyone who needed replacements having removed them on arrival just went to Reception for replacements.)

The system has worked well on our previous cruises, saves wasting paper.
