How to Make Your Own Cabin Crew Bag Name Tags

Luggage

The purpose of making your own cabin crew bag name tag is twofold: One, to be able to spot your luggage on an airplane carousel quickly and, two, to have your name and phone number on your luggage in case it gets lost in transit. Create your own tags easily at home using cardboard from a cereal box and some common household items.

Things You'll Need

• Neon index card
• Scissors
• Small piece of cardboard
• Felt-tip marker
• Clear packing tape
• Hole punch
• Zip tie

Instructions

1. Fold a neon-colored index card in half lengthwise and cut along the fold.

2. Place one piece of the index card on top of a small piece of cardboard and cut around it.

3. Sandwich the cardboard cut-out between the two pieces of neon index card.

4. Write your name and phone number on one side of the sandwiched piece and write "Cabin Crew" in large letters on the other side.

5. Wrap the whole piece carefully with clear packing tape and cut away the excess tape.

6. Punch a hole in one corner of the tag with a hole punch.

7. Insert a zip tie through the hole and attach the tag to your luggage.

Tips & Warnings

• Don’t put your address visibly on your luggage tag in order to protect your privacy and keep you safe.

• The zip tie is not removable without cutting so this is basically a permanent tag.
