Frank@OBOW in Luggage

Some carryon-only types don’t worry about luggage tags since they’re used to having their bags in their possession at all times. But with gate checking becoming more common, a good luggage tag is essential. OBOW reader Larry P. has this tip for a cheap and indestructble one:

“I don’t remember who reccomended this but I got a pet tag at the local pet store with my name and cell phone number.  It’s metal and I attach it with the ring for car keys.  It should last forever and it won’t come off without some serious effort.”
