When boarding a couple in front of me on a Delta Connection flight today, the gate agent made special note that she needed to affix “priority” pink tags to their bags. She noted that the tags were new as of the last day or two and that their bags should be among the first off the plane.

I didn’t have a pink-tagged bag, so I didn’t get one. Is this a new, quietly-released SkyPriority benefit? If it is, seems like a cool benefit to me, especially since those with SkyPriority are generally among the first to deplane.

Sorry for the bad pic—I was trying to snap it before the handler took the bag at the bottom of the jetbridge.
