Our Verdict
Nice little freebie.
Just received my Platinum baggage tags (Delta). They are pretty nice.
For Delta:
> “You are on your way to Silver Medallion Status, but at this time you are not eligible to receive a welcome kit. As you work toward Medallion Status, feel free to visit our website to learn more about earning Status and the destinations we fly.”
*Yawn*, it is so tired the status crew. It is like reading r/delta in here. You really think people are stealing your checked baggage if you have a stupid tag on it? Well they already mark it as priority when you check it as a status member. OMG, some person is going to get my clothes. Who cares? If you have status you should have insurance and money to replace them. Just don’t check valuables, who cares?
*Scream*, I’m so awake for my glorious status. It’s like reading a Holy Book up in this. I proudly defend my beautiful status and ‘priority’ tags from the scoundrels. No one wears my stuff. I care. Insurance is theft. Everything has value. I care!

Got’em!!
do the united and delta airport bag people treat my bags more kindly or do they still just toss it like trash around?
Methinks you already know
Ah, the chase for that elite status symbol, bag tags. What a nice bullseye for unscrupulous baggage handlers. Passengers will really notice me while my bags are stored above head or in the cargo compartment.
Wait, you guys put these on your ‘checked’ bags? Off. I think you’re doing it wrong.
(sounds like someone hasn’t earned status yet… naw, naw, you’re right, makes you a target for thieves)
I’m pretty sure that United premier members are entitled to priority baggage handing and that they mark premier member’s checked bags with a special tag around the handle so I don’t see this as drawing more attention to your bag than it would already otherwise normally receive.
They sure are. Some of us prefer to be under the radar by all means possible regardless of status. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SB996LfRBDA
Ugh… so ‘entitled’
Darn, I no longer have Titanium this year and thus I lost my United Premier Silver.
Have you considered switching over to Cardboard Medallion?
Lol? What do you mean? Delta Medallion Status?
Some at r/delta made a few parody ‘brag tags’.
My other favorites: Cubic Zirconia Medallion; Fool’s Gold Medallion.

Tip: If you don’t have any use for yet another Delta baggage tag, you can change the customization from your name to anything you want. Including the name of a child or grandchild . . . then gift the tags to them as a birthday present or a whatever present. Little kids love this stuff.
I like where your head is at.

Great way to convince companies you have 30 years experience at 18
Some would say… great…AGAIN.
So that’s how they do it! I’ve always wondered how companies fill entry-level roles while demanding +10 years experience.
I keep my Pan Am tag on my bag. “This bag belongs to an old fart.”
I still have mine but wouldn’t chance losing it.
