Embarkation Documents/Bag Tags

[lkakers]

Does Windstar still mail out embarkation documents/luggage tags prior to sailing? We sail out a week from Saturday and haven't received anything. It's been more than a decade since we last sailed with them, so apologies if this is old news. I tried to search the board for an answer to this and couldn't turn anything up.

Sailed recently. Got nothing before the cruise. Just go. At pier, you will asked your name and cabin.  If it is on the list, they will attach luggage tags.  Checkin is on the ship. No precruise checkin.  Also, no precruise dining reservations.  After your checkin, you can make reservations for specialty dining.  It’s very relaxed and very different from other cruise lines.

Not anymore.  I miss the blue bags.

Thanks for the info, both of you! Much appreciated.

On the ship, each cabin gets a cloth bag tote bag, a small zip case with luggage tags.  Nice, but would’ve been more useful before the cruise.  I have a collection of Windstar tote bags. Never got the same bag twice.

Wife has a collection of the little tote bags. She looks forward to a new one every cruise.

We got the tote bag as expected (I have several now as well, all different!), but no zip case with luggage tags. We did as the above posters indicated, just brought the bags to the pier and they tagged them for us.

On our Star Breeze transatlantic in December we got the little blue zip pouch with our disembarkation tags!

I don't ever recall getting any little blue bags on my 4 Windstar cruises!!

I’ve done 40 Windstar cruises and it was my first little blue bag with disembarkation tags. They used to send them before the cruise with the cruise documents and luggage tags.
