I'm sure some management suck-up will print this off and show that people are taking the bottles off the plane.

I have a crew tag on mine, but only because I have had my bag taken off the plane before and I like to be able to tell it apart from others. But the neon yellow is a nice touch.
I haven't seen a do not remove tag in awhile, we used to use those on the Brasilia when bags had to actually go in the back.

I had that big ugly old yellow tag on my suitcase and a passenger still walked off the plane with my bag and made it all the way home at an outstation... Back in base, I found his bag instead of mine in the overhead... I called said passenger and he was absolutely oblivious... His bag looked nothing like mine and didn't have a blue flight safety CREW tag or a yellow DO NOT REMOVE CREWMEMBER ONBOARD tag like mine did...

And for that reason I still keep that big ugly yellow tag on my suitecase in a vain attempt to hope that no passenger in the future will be as oblivious to remove my bag like that again...

I've had pax try to walk off with mine before, too. Most recent was a Mexican dude whose actual bag was covered with a floral print; he knew the bag he grabbed wasn't his. His was probably empty.

I carry a master lock and chain it to a random first class seat. Play dumb when the gate agent asks why that seat is MEL'ed.

Fortunately this guy was genuinely oblivious in my situation and I got my bag back the next day. Even if I lost it at least I didn't have anything of value in there. A trip's worth of clothes, shoes and some toiletries. Woohoo what a haul... All the expensive gadgets and important documents stay up front with me in my flight bag.

Don't worry that bag will soon look as beat as a 200 after all the OBR and DH'ing they'll be doing on reserve.

That's almost as worse as the PSA pilot we saw at the bar in Chilli's on a CRW overnight. He was wearing his leather jacket which is not a problem but he still had his epaulets and wings attached to it. Oh what a fun laugh that was.
