bajathree Posted August 6, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Bag Tag Mailer Updates: Please be aware that for the Royal Caribbean International brand, effective for all guest documents issued on, or after, August 8, 2012, we will be eliminating the ability to order a Bag Tag Mailer for all guests/bookings with the exception of Crown & Anchor Pinnacle members and Suite guests (Grand Suites and above). For all other Royal Caribbean International bookings, bag tags will now be included as a page within the eDoc ticket booklets, which can then be printed and attached by the guest. At this time, while we will still allow a bag tag mailing address to be entered within the CruiseMatch booking engine, please be aware that after August 8, 2012 no mailers will be sent to any addresses that are provided here for Royal Caribbean International bookings. At this time, these changes do not impact guests/bookings on either the Celebrity Cruises or Azamara Club Cruises brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEXASMUNK Posted August 6, 2012 #2 Share Posted August 6, 2012 This is truly minor..i would rather RCI save a couple of bucks by eliminating the tags and the envelope and the postage than take it out of the food budget..... Works for me. It ain't a real friendly economy out there these days, ya gotta give RCI credit for making an effort to maintain the product.

2thesea Posted August 6, 2012 #8 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Packing tape works perfectly - although I have to admit I will miss the excitement i get when I open my mailbox and see the envelope from RCI :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starry Eyes Posted August 6, 2012 #9 Share Posted August 6, 2012 I will miss the "real" luggage tags, but I have done fine with packing tape over paper. I agree, among places to cut, this one is acceptable to me...better than cutting on food or service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCF_Knight Posted August 6, 2012 #15 Share Posted August 6, 2012 At least this will give my 5 and 4 year old kids an art project to work on as they anxiously await the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted August 6, 2012 #16 Share Posted August 6, 2012 This has ruined my day :mad:...Just one more cheap downgrade from RCI to their loyal royals :(...This should still be available to D+ as it's taken most of us a long time to get there...What's next :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macruisefan Posted August 6, 2012 #17 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Porters at the pier put luggage tags on. Mailers, printing your own, using packaging tape... It's all a big waste of time. Of course, having said that. I have no doubt people here will react to this in such a fashion that you would think RCI just announced they are using blind amputee child slave laborers in their engine rooms!

dixieva Posted August 6, 2012 #21 Share Posted August 6, 2012 There is a web site that sells all sorts of cruise related stuff and I ordered these really nice luggage tag holders from them. They are re-usable clear plastic. You take your printed luggage tag, fold, insert it into the holder and attach to your luggage handle with the included strap. Mine were around $3 each which includes the shipping cost. I love them! No more laminating, packing tape etc. Google cuise luggage tag holders and you should find it.

gmacruiser418 Posted August 6, 2012 #23 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Princess cruise line already does this. We sailed on it last year and I read on their page about clear luggage tag holders you can order thru the web. I ordered several. They weren't too expensive and they worked great. I just bought some of the electrical tie wraps to secure them. Sorry I can't help what website at this time. If I find it, I'll post later.
