    Why not just tie your own individual tag on suitcase handle like mini scarf or somthing ? .I have a little green scarf that sticks out from all the other black bags on baggage conveyor belt

    Cant beat insulation tape on the handle. Or those wee county colours braided things.

    You could put a keyring on it or I can't think of the name of what you call them but you can get them on match days it county colours or ireland colours ... eh that's annoying me now... what do you call them.... if any one knows what you call them please tell me it's annoying me :D

    Anyone whatever the thing is called you can tie it to your suitcase :p

    I would have thought they'd have them. Insulating tape idea sounds good too.

    Coloured insulating tape sounds like a good idea, must try that.

    duck tape a small child to it, the sound of it crying is a dead giveaway and to be responsible for a kid it too much for most bag thieves

    I tied a brightly colored scarf around the handle of my suitcase on a recent voyage of mine down the country.

    I'd love to get a personalised suitcase made, or maybe you send off a picture and they print it onto the suitcase for you.

    Hey! That's my suitcase!
    Oh yeah? prove it!
    There's a picture of me on it!!

    Not that I'd put a picture of myself on the suitcase but I'm sure someone out there would.

    My suitcase went in with nothing on the handles and came out with a pink g-string tied to the handle! The looks i was getting from the people around me in the baggage area!

    Wear all your clothes on the plane.

    I normally use handcuffs like these these to secure my bag, plug makes it easy to spot....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,900 ✭✭✭Quality

    i am sure you can get a few plain white stickers and some crayons... You might actually enjoy it!!:p

    No this is a terrible idea! Last time I was away I did just this, it didn't stop a silly silly woman taking my case instead of her own and going of home with it. My mother puts giant orange stickers from a stationary shop on hers and from now on I'm going to do the same.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 465 ✭✭coco06


    Maybe you should get your bag and put it inside another bag that you will recognise??;)

    write your name in cow blood on it!!

    guaranteed to be recognisable....and no-one else is gonna take it!!

    I use a square of duct tape on every side of my cases (they don't always appear the same way up on the baggage carousel). That stuff sticks like s**t to a blanket and doesn't come off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,817 ✭✭✭pebbles21


    put a sticker on it saying

    my other suitcase is a samsonite!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Duct tape an "X" on the side.
