Had both of my new SE tags not make it to Yellowknife. The one on my carry-on split in half when going into the overhead..... what a complete joke! Sent an email to the concierge but I'm not expecting any meaningful resolution to this. How did they not test out the tags before printing thousands of them??

Thanks everyone for test-driving these Fiat-like quality tags.
I'm only going to use the 2018 tags with the 2016 red loops for small carry that will go under the seat. I'll stick with the 2017 tags for checked luggage and bulkier overhead bin items.

Wow, I won't complain about the AC tags anymore. Just got the FT tags.
Nothing screams "Look at me, I'm an important FF" than big yellow tags that say "Priority" on them....
I'll still use them though......

In a previous post, I noted how cheap the tags felt. Being proactive, I laminated all of mine and repunched the holes myself. Haven't had any breakages yet. They look cr*ppy with the lamination but they should survive the year.

I think we can all be judgy this year. When we see someone with new tags and new straps, we can declare the person to be a fool, or supremely confident, or an uneducated non-FTer flying for the first time since getting the swag. After all, one of my straps broke when I was attaching it to the tag. Odds of these things lasting through a round trip to anywhere? Next to nil, I would say.
new tags for carry on only....
