This policy seems to be followed with particular enthusiasm where bags have tags including words such as 'Priority' or 'Privileged Member', whatever - whether related to the airline in question on the day, other airlines, or hotel etc etc. So I try to keep tags low-key in both appearance & quantity.

On the other hand ...... maybe it's just ME they take a dislike to ..... !!
or steal them, like my leather concorde label
