I never understood why there is SEN still that uses their red tags on their hand luggage. The big bags I can understand but their laptop bags????
Maybe it's the new SENs...

But some agents are doesn't know the new handling. ^

BTW, if you are reading the (baggage) passage at the FTL- and at the SEN-site, you will see the difference to handling that.....

I guess LH baggage handlers must be better than UA's. On UA, the Priority tags are absolutely useless. It's a recurring complaint on the UA board.
That said, when I fly LH into LAX, the tags don't help at all. Maybe it's a U.S. problem.

The HON Circle priority tags are very useful in PEK, Asia.
There were two bags with the HON tags and they were first, of course, and the other bags came after the HONs picked them up (after four minutes). But there is no service like the service in Asia.
Is this the same in any other regions of the world?

On Monday in DFW it was the same. The HON luggage came first....... My bags with Priority tags came 25 minutes later. In my opinion, the normal priority sticker are just a marketing gag that has no effct on delivery time at all.
