Joh and I have met quite a few FT'ers purely via the bright Flouro yellow bag tags. These include
cblaisd on a flight to SFO who was sitting behind us,
NCRBill upstairs on a 747 flying to IAD in the exit row #15 opposite us. Another Flyertalker last year sitting next to us on a ferry to Vieques, Spanish Virgin Is from Puerto Rico, and even
gottigotti in the railway station tunnel at Amsterdam! We even had a Flyertalker
Seat1B driving us around Denali Park Alaska a month or so back on the Park Service buses for 10 hours, and the FT tag got us together. ^
Rudi, ozstamps and
Hunki in the photo below schlepped these flouro tagged suitcases all over Wengen in the Swiss Alps in the driving snow this May. We hoped someone would notice the yellow Flyertalk tags festooned all over them and buy us a coffee. Only the mystery person taking the photo seems to have noticed us.

Have also noticed a lot seen to get souvenired from airports by baggage handlers one imagines?
