Am I being dumb?

First time cruiser - have become addicted to this website, can't get enough information to satisfy my OCD tendencies!

I read on the website that there is a luggage tag program for certain guests. If I am not in a suite or anything, will I be able to print my luggage tags beforehand?

Everyone can print their luggage tags at about 7 weeks before the cruise.

Suite guests have the option of having luggage tags mailed to them.

Oh, gotcha! Thanks for the quick response, I have learned a lot from some of your other posts!

If your in a suite they can be mailed to you for free. Otherwise, you can print your own out when your cruise docs are ready about 7 weeks prior to your cruise.

The tag has your Room # on it so the Stewards can sort it quickly. They put them on a cart at the drop off lot in front of the entranceway and you get on the ship. They ask you to stay out of your cabin awhile so they can deliver all the luggage without interference although there are some who ignore it, Usually the same people who drive around with one eye shut and a thumb up in front of the other and say "I can't see you so you don't exist!"

As others have said, you will be able to print your own tags when your docs are issued, which usually occurs at 49 days pre-cruise.

Have you set up a MyCruises page with your reservation number on it?

You can either print the tags, cover them with packing tape, and attach them to your bags, or you can buy these:

I bought those tag holders from

Amazon, and they're great! Inexpensive, too!

No such thing as a dumb question on CC, most folks on here are happy to help! However, if you want to stir things up and create controversy, havoc & flame wars, bring up tipping or dress code!! :D

Lol! I have learned!! Auto tipping - check, still considering formal night!

Yes. There is a luggage tag template that comes with your cruise docs that are emailed about 7 or so weeks before you sail. Just print as many as you need.

The tag has your Room # on it so the Stewards can sort it quickly. They put them on a cart at the drop off lot in front of the entranceway and you get on the ship. They ask you to stay out of your cabin awhile so they can deliver all the luggage without interference although there are some who ignore it, Usually the same people who drive around with one eye shut and a thumb up in front of the other and say "I can't see you so you don't exist!"

Huh?

I have been told that the reason you can't go to your room right away if you board quite early is so that they can clean the cabins. Also, your luggage most times arrives at all different times. You may get some bags before dinner and others after dinner. It's a good idea to pack something to wear for dinner in your carry on. The first night is always casual dress. Have a great cruise.

That's Bob, he is probably the best poster on this entire board. Anniversarygirl, what ship are you going on and when? Have you joined your roll call?

will I be able to print my luggage tags beforehand?

As soon as your trip is paid in full you will be able to print docs and tags within a day or so.

Royal normally issues docs and tags at 49 days before the cruise.

I print out the paper ones that everyone is talking about and put clear masking tape over them to make them sturdier, then I just staple them on to the bags

Suite guests have the option of having luggage tags mailed to them.

Option of suite guests having luggage tags mailed to them seems to only apply to US residents. No longer true in UK. In the UK we must print our own tags. Not a big deal but something we only discovered after we followed up.

This seems to be a recent change as we got luggage tags mailed to us last year.

And all this time I have been playing and cutting with packing tape. Thanks Merion Mom!

I believe you are correct, I now recall reading this a while back.

Same here. We bought them for our last cruise they are great. I think we paid $10 for double set.
