ColumboRocks Posted July 24, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 24, 2023 How far in advance are these available on NCL? And can you get them at the port of departure if not able to print? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastalbreezes Posted July 24, 2023 #2 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) Once you've checked in at 21 days prior to your cruise, your boarding docs and luggage tags will be available within days. When you scroll down to the section "At The Pier" you'll see an icon that says "print luggage tags here". If you do not get the opportunity to print them prior to departure you definitely can get them at the port.

I have been using these Cruise Critic ones for years. They're really helpful. It beats having to figure out how to staple the paper ones after a flight. I just put these tags on when I am arriving at the port. Cruise Critic Store: Cruise Luggage Tag Holder - Cruise Critic Community 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine have pliable plastic attachments. I may have to look and see if I can find the stainless steel attachments online. I wonder why the Amazon is only showing them for NCL tags. Won't they work with a number of other cruise lines'? I found some on Amazon! Pretty colors too!!

Search amazon using the cruise line name and luggage tags. They have some for every line. One of the reaons I choose those tags were the stainless steel attachments. Pretty sure that will stay attached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psalm104 Posted July 25, 2023 #12 Share Posted July 25, 2023 I see a reference to self-adhesive NCL luggage tags on the amazon listing. Are those available from NCL as opposed to the printable tags? Or is that outdated information? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many experienced Haven passengers have reported that they prefer to use the standard ones they print out themselves from thier own computer.

The porters have had adhesive tags and Sharpies to write your cabin number on the tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've received the NCL tags for several recent cruises, and I'm most certainly NOT in the Haven. I do prefer the heavy vinyl, self-adhesive, NCL provided tags. That said, if those don't show up, I do have the Amazon holders and they are great. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got the vinyl tags in the mail for an 8/25 cruise, as did many others on the cruise. They are nice. Note the Amazon holders only fits the printed version, not the ones they send you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't do this either, but there are a boatload of folks on the forums that swear by tag holders. I don't understand, but hey it's their money, not mine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare laudergayle Posted July 27, 2023 #20 Share Posted July 27, 2023 As a non-Haven cruiser, we haven’t received vinyl tags since 2022. So…we bought the tag holders from Amazon with the stainless attachment. However, getting that stainless wire open is ridiculously difficult. I have to put on readers in order to see which part to turn…and even then I often can’t figure out which way to turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
