Luggage Tags for 75K Gold Members?
I admit this is pretty trivial (if such a post is possible on FT). A few months ago I asked someone sitting next to me about his very attractive Alaska Airlines luggage tag. He told me he got it upon reaching 75K status. I hit that status recently but have yet to receive the tag. Do they still send them? Any other surprise perks (excluding the well publicized 75K benefits - which are substantial)? Thanks.

YMMV of course, but the two best perks I've had flying AS over the last few years are the great friendships I've made with the BR folks in PDX and SEA and some FAs that I see on a regular basis. They really make the constant travel bearable.

I received the package last week. The BR passes are easy to miss.
The luggage tags are so shiny, I'm considering going to the pawn shop or a cash-for-gold place to see how much I can get.
The crappy impossible-to-remove adhesive may decrease the value a bit.

* - My card and bag tags are a different shade of gold, the card being darker. Thought it was odd but maybe they are printed separately?
* - The adhesive is annoying, not sure why it has to be so difficult to get off.
