These tags have been terrific in global travel. It has made sure delayed luggage followed me from hotel to hotel, city to city, and country to country. When I have only been in a country for a few hours, this tag has made sure the luggage was transfered to another airline and arrived. Have never lost a bag with this tag attached!
I bought my first set of these tags in gray color from Magellans about twelve years ago. During my military travels, they made at least 30 trips with me and survived all manner of third world carriers. I'm finally buying two more sets for my retirement travels. Glad to see they now come in a bright and easier to spot color.
Don't bother! The baggage handlers can't (or don't) read, no matter what the language. It's a long story, but suffice it to say that despite a complete itinerary inside with addresses and phone numbers, the bags never made it to Europe, let alone outside the United States!! The airlines were able to leave it at the front door while we were gone. Fortunately we have good neighbors.
Have used these for several years and they are great especially for involved RTW trips. Give them to travelling friends and family, even those who live in other countries and have never seen them.
bought these for trip 1.5 years ago and LOVE them ... will be buying more and using as gifts for people that travel a lot !!
Great concept, poor execution. The only thing that got lost on our trip were 3 out of 6 of these tags: the buckle comes undone too easily. Ended up using duct tape to hold them shut.
Good idea, but the tags (both of them) came off the baggage whilst in transit. The leather attaching straps are too thin and soon break. Invent a stronger attachment system please.
I have used these tags several times. They provide a degree of peace of mind, though I don't know if they really help or not. At least twice my bags have arrived with the tags torn off (i.e., they don't seem very durable or resistant to abuse).
