I don't see the point using my ink and paper.

Maybe if there was an F/Elite dropoff line I'd be tempted, but too often the line is rather long. Sure it should go fast, but I'd rather go over to the F/MVPG line myself.
I tried print at home once. Didn't really save any time (and have to hook up my printer). Still at the mercy of bag drop line. Now that I have MVP for the moment I make a game time decision, no bag drop line? I'll print them myself. Bag drop line and short MVP line? MVP check in it is.

In my experience printing the tags is never the choke point, it is the dropping of the bags.

Now if they ever do a wider rollout of the e-ink tags, i'd be game for that. https://blog.alaskaair.com/alaska-ai...onic-bag-tags/
