Luggage label ??

[bridegirl]

I'm typing up the DIS reccommended "Pre-printed luggage address labels" for disembarkation

What size is the best? I have some that are three inches by four inches

And what info do they need to have on them, other then our name and address? Thank so much!

They will give you tags to attach to your luggage for disembarkation near the end of your cruise. You need your name, address and it is helpful if you have
# of #, like 1 of 5, 2 of 5, etc. on the tags. It helps them to know how many pieces in your group.

I guess Im looking for the size of those tags???

I read on the DIS to pre-print them from the computer so you dont have to fill them out by hand.

Thanks!

If you are going to print an address label, the standard size ones (about 1"x3") would fit. Anything much bigger is going to hang off the sides (your color coded tags they give you are oval). I would find it a bigger pain to have to keep track of where I put the sticky labels I pre-made than to just hand write my address a couple of times. I guess the labels are handy if you have a whole lot of luggage but we never have more than 3 or 4 pieces for them to take from us.

I used the regular ones I have here at home that I put on everything that I mail. The size was just fine and I was glad I remembered to bring them!

I would use Avery brand, label #8160 (ink jet printer) or #5160 (laser jet printer)....they are 1 x 2 5/8 each.....they seem to fit fine on the luggage tags....I just measured them on the luggage tags......you can also use a store brand like Staples with the same measurements as above......they are 30 to a sheet (3 columns of 10). Word and WordPerfect both have these labels as one of the options in their label function.

I have used both of these labels in all different printers and it does not seem to matter what which number you use in what printer.

I have the DCL luggage tag for debarkation in front of me and this is the info they are looking for....

Number of pieces of luggage (we always put 1 of 3, 2 of 3, etc.)
Stateroom Number
Name
Street Address
City, State, Zip, Country

Hope this helps.
