Default Luggage tags

Received our luggage tags today for our January 10 cruise, they are green with an A on them, does the A mean anything? We are on Baja deck, can't wait, Thanks

The "A" means that they will be loaded onto the aft part of the ship....if they had an "F", they would have been loaded foreward

We don't have a printer in Florida. How will we get luggage tags? Our TA said to make our own, and make them creative, if we like.

I had the same idea which will probably work as long as you give the bags directly to the porters at the terminal. Since they load them into the large bins how could they possible get lost as long as the printing is waterproof, clear & legible? I'd also print either an "A" or "F" on the tags depending on your cabin location.

If you cannot print them at home before you leave for Florida (available 75 days before the cruise assuming final payment has been made), then you should ask the TA to print them and mail them to you in FL.

If the TA is unhappy about this, have him/her tell Princess about being unhappy, not tell you.

Your TA is either trying to be cute or is a dummy. You choose. What you do is arrive at the pier and get blank tags from the porters. Fill them out, attach them and don't worry. Tip the porter and board the ship.

A magic marker type pen/Sharpie would be better than a regular pen.
