I know a number of individuals who, despite dropping in tier, continue to display their old tags. I don't think that's OK...

The amount of times I’ve seen the same Wenger carry on case Tesco did a deal on ~6 years ago confirms that!
Decent set for the money right enough |

Guilty your honour! It was a very good deal though that Tesco did - but for a few years afterwards it seemed every third bag on the belt at a UK airport was a Tesco generated Wenger :D
Definitely not knocking them, I've got the full set, and so do my parents, and sister! https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...93e10f9d2e.jpg To remain on topic, no shiny cards on the family cases! |
I use mine but as identification. Like an awful other lot of business travellers, I have a cabin sized black TUMI bag and it simply marks it out as mine. Not sure what the potential issue is here.

But surely there will be many other business travellers with a TUMI and a BAEC tag? ;]

indeed, all the more reason to have a luggage tag to enable the case and owner to be reunited more easily should someone pick up a bag in error.��

I had no choice last time I replaced my case. The answer is to decorate it very tastefully in duct tape.
My black and white checkerboard tape is round the handles plus a couple of other areas. Back to luggage tags - never bother on checked luggage - just put name, flight and contact no on a piece of paper - job done. I will continue to swan around with my silver tags on my cabin bags, seeing as BA did not send me any bronze ones. I have on more than one occasion left my bag - which was returned in a timely manner due to the BAEC tags. |

Wouldn't that just be because on average, status tends to positively correlate with age, which in turn correlated negatively with hotness?

I think you're just asking for them to be broken/lost if you use them on checked luggage. However if people like to use them then fair enough.
Not much use unless you fly BA anyway are they? |

The only time a tag should be used (IMHO) is on checked luggage. People that put them on their cabin baggage strike me as people who think to have a shiny gold or silver tag makes them look more important :rolleyes:

Your opinion is not particularly ‘humble’, IMHO. ;)
Yea, for we tag our hand baggage too, for verily it facilitates Ground Staff in identifying us as proper denizens of Group 1. :D |
