I like my yellow FT luggage tags, but what would be really great (and I would pay $)
A) If the tags could be personalized with Name, Address, cell phone #, etc, to comply with the airline checked luggage ID requirement
or
B) even better if the flip side of the tag had a "If found, the owner can be contacted via www.Flyertalk.com owner locator ID XXXXXXX"
Where XXXXXXX was a code similar to airline record locator. That way if/when I move, I can update the info on FT website and not have to order brand new luggage tags! ^^^

I'm not sure I'd want mine on a checked bag. TSA employees are frequently the target of scorn on the Travel Safety/Security forum here and I'd be worried if they might retaliate in some manner if they saw an FT tag. They could open up your bag and take something (bear in mind a number of these folks have been arrested for theft), not put the proper notice in it, and you'd never be able to tell who was inside it when you picked it up at baggage claim. That and the tags aren't very sturdy to begin with. Nothing like an airline membership card.

They have been sold in the past and a new version is being developed. For right now, send a PM to SanDiego1K and she will send you one.
