zitsky Posted September 13, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 13, 2022 We have two friends on the same sailing 9/26/22 on Reflection. We linked our reservations, although it didn't work as well as we expected. But I can see that they have luggage tags. We don't and we are on the same cruise. Did we forget something on check in, maybe vaccine history? Or something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted September 13, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 13, 2022 You mean you cannot download the eDocs package? Your tags appear at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Fusion FoodsJ Posted September 13, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Had the same problem recently, never could get resolved so just hand wrote them at port. I think it cost us 3 minutes in our boarding time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zitsky Posted September 13, 2022 Author #6 Share Posted September 13, 2022 I checked our eDocs. I do not see luggage tags. I'll check with our friends to see if they did something different than we did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The eDocs we have received always included the tags at the end of the *.pdf. If cabin location was important, perhaps because of proximity to your friends, you might want to contact your TA or Celebrity to see what's up.

Rare OysterD Posted September 13, 2022 #10 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Same sailing, our luggage tags are also pending. Just don't take any luggage, problem solved! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two separate links on the website. 1). Access the luggage tags PENDING 2) Access eDocs. NO LUGGAGE TAGS. TA recommends waiting “a while” until they (LUGGAGE TAGS) are available.

The tags would not come from your TA. Why are you wanting the crappy paper tags that are part of your edocs? Just have them tag your bags at the pier. FWIW in Iceland they had 2 porters doing tags. Took less time than waiting in line to drop tagged bags off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Salt Lifer Posted September 13, 2022 #13 Share Posted September 13, 2022 On our Celebrity Cruise last April we never received our eDocs or luggage tags online. Celebrity customer service was less than helpful. In the end we were able to hand-write them at the Port and all was fine, but it made us VERY nervous as new Celebrity customers. Celebrity needs to do better here as this seems to be an ongoing issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it fails simply take your confirmation from the cruise line (and TA) to the pier. Most issues are with software on our computers. I always try printing mine at a library or other such location. Easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always try printing mine at a library or other such location. Easier. I’ve worked in IT. It makes me more patient and more demanding at the same time LOL. I suspect whoever wrote the code for the luggage tags left a bug in the system. Celebrity is known for a bad website. I was told the luggage tags are in eDocs but I don’t see that. Edit: Funny the only difference is that our friends DID NOT do their health checkin. Hmmm? Can someone tell me what docs I need to show the porter if I don’t get luggage tags. And can that info be found in the official app e.g. Express pass? Edited September 14, 2022 by zitsky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisestitch Posted September 14, 2022 #16 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Show your express pass or show your booking confirmation. Anything that has your stateroom on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajconova Posted September 14, 2022 #17 Share Posted September 14, 2022 We had same problem with September 24, Mexican Rivera sailing on Solstice. Edocs last page was blank and website said luggage tags are pending. I called Celebrity individual bookings number 1-800-556-8209 yesterday morning. No hold time! The representative emailed me tags in 2 minutes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alcpa1 Posted September 14, 2022 #18 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Of all the things to worry about luggage tags should be your last. Just get the tags when you hand over your luggage. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parrothead33 Posted September 14, 2022 #19 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Did you book your flight with Flights by Celebrity? That seemed to be the issue when we sailed in July. Those on our Roll call that booked our flights through Celebrity had the same issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mailmama Posted September 14, 2022 #23 Share Posted September 14, 2022 We had 3 cabins booked for Alaska in June. Only 1 cabin ever got their luggage tags. Other 2 always said pending. When we got to port of Seattle, porter took care of it for us.......took mere seconds to write cabin number on the tag and we were good to go. Will never worry about no tags again!! And our luggage was in the room before the cabin with preprinted tags!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I can ask for help at the ship. Or Celebrity can make a website that works. Or even better. Just mail my eDocs with my luggage tags to my home address like some companies used to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
