Travelon Set of 2 Tags

Perfect concept - to hide all the details of the traveler but allowing just enough for identification (the name). I bought so many of these. Excellent quality, easy to attach.

These are the best type of luggage tags to use for many reasons: 1) Your information is secure. To read anything other than your name the strap must be removed. On other tags anybody can read your tag and know you are not home. 2) The straps are virtually indestructible. They are stronger than many of the new wire loop type straps and much stronger than the buckle type. (I have had other straps break during flights.) 3) The back of the tag is large enough to clear tape on a Travel Insurance label. 4) Some of the colors are distinctive so people are less likely to take your luggage by mistake. After you fill out the required information (or print it on a printer), cover the information with clear packing tape. That will ensure the information is not lost if the tag gets wet. I have used these Travelon tags for many years for business and pleasure travel. I have never lost one due to strap breakage. I bought more because my old tags got scarred up by luggage handling machines. (They seem to be getting more nasty.) Now I have new and crisp looking tag holders!

Love these items. Great quality and very durable

I bought this in a panic as I brought up my suitcase on saturday for my flight early monday morning to see that my tag fell off the last time I used it (thank goodness for 12 hour delivery times!). I chose Travelon because that is the same brand of my luggage. When it arrived it took me a good 10 minutes to figure out how to open it. [You have to take off the loop entirely and then swivel the top and bottom pieces away from each other. You're welcome.] Otherwise, it worked just fine & I love the bright color options to make it easier to determine it is your suitcase.

Great quality and easy to spot my luggage. Just what I was looking for.

Does what it needs to do - shows the first name/abbreviation you want but nothing else. It's required to untag the whole thing to get the information, so it's more secure. The tag is rigid, so if you have it on a backpack it might flap at you and hit you in the face or something depending on how you secure (recommend minimum movement). On a carry-on or larger luggage it's great. Durable, secure, and does what's needed without telling everyone your phone-number or email at a glance.

Ordering these was a shot in the dark, I really didn't know what to expect but I like the privacy aspect while still being able to have contact information on the bag. As it turns out, I love these tags. There is no way one of these tags is going to just fall off. The hang strap is very tough plastic (synthetic) material and while I have no doubt some airline, somewhere, could break the hang strap it will take some work. Also, unless someone is very familiar with how the hang strap threads through the buckle they're not going to be able to open it in a very short time frame, so short of cutting it off to gain immediate access your more personal information is relatively secure. The tag itself is molded out of a tough material and the yellow ones I got are bright, which will be nice for spotting them on the luggage carousel. Several folks have mentioned how they open. Part of the reason for this is because the instructions and information on the packaging is NOT CORRECT. It shows a different style of luggage tag. To Open: 1) Remove the hang strap, and 2) Pivot the two parts (upper and lower) opposite each other. That's it. What looks like a button (or such) on the tag, at the end opposite the hang strap, is a plastic rivet; the upper and lower half of the tag pivot on the rivet. So, if you remove the hang strap and hold the tag at the hang strap end between your thumb and forefinger then fan them open (like you would fan several playing cards in your hand) the two halves separate very easily. DO NOT pry the two halves apart, you'll break the plastic rivet.

I love the selection of colors and the fact that you can hide your address. They're a little hard to fasten but not a deal breaker.
