Drum Roll Please: Announcing the 2013 Cruisers' Choice Awards!
Once again, your voice is loud and clear! Here are your choices for the best experiences at sea:
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.

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.
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
I can live without the tags..but it was always neat to get the official countdown item which was actual tangible proof I am finally going & getting close to departure time
This has ruined my day ...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
Wow. I would love to trade days with you if this is the worst of it.

Good idea,but I imagine now with people making their own tags,some will look the same,some very different...feel bad to the ones who have to sort thru the luggage.at least with the tags they gave us,they knew exactly what to look for.......
serendipity is the website to get the clear holders. worked great and are reusable cruise after cruise. I didn't like the wraps that came with them to hold them, but you can get the electrical tie wraps and cut them for each cruise. They won't fall off with them!

I agree!!! Do people even know how they sound when they gripe about luggage tags???????????

It does seem more and more that Pinnacle and Suite are starting to get teamed up together.....this rings a bell with some recent threads about changes coming to C&A and some privileges...especially with the CL/DL....don't think that will be happening real real soon....but further proof that if anything the CL will probably just switch over to Suite and Pinnacle in the not all that distant future.
I just ordered mine a couple of days ago....I guess I will save one for my scrapbook....this is the last time I'll be getting them...no way will we ever reach pinnacle!

Same here, ordered them last Thursday. Going to keep one for the scrap book.
Yep !!!! Maybe no big deal to you...but ever since they did away with the cruise booklets you could still look forward to receiving those luggage tags in the mail...and somehow that was exciting...Apparently not for you and a few other's..but it would have been nice to still have the option for those of us that "want" them...Guess I'm just an old fashioned kind of cruiser

The pieces of the puzzle are slowly falling into place....one piece at a time.

I have 6 unused tags from the cruise I took this weekend. I'm thinking we can all save our unused tags and for the next year or so, trade them off to one another.

Just think how many cruises people will book to get there now. All for free luggage tags.

I'm wondering how long it will take for the suite and pinnacle folks to start complaining about how RCI is giving them a benefit that everyone else finds to be so trivial. They might just see it as insulting that RCI is giving them something that no one else seems to care about.
