Learn how to attach and use your Away Aluminum Edge Tag for fast luggage identification. Step-by-step setup tips for a secure, stylish tag.
Quick answer
Attach your Aluminum Edge Tag to your Away suitcase handle in seconds using the built-in strap loop. This durable navy blue tag helps you spot your bag quickly without extra bulk.
Why the Aluminum Edge Tag works for quick ID
The tag’s slim aluminum design sits flush against your luggage handle, so it won’t snag on conveyor belts or overhead bins. Its navy blue finish stands out against most bag colors, making it easier to spot your suitcase at baggage claim.
Because it attaches directly to the handle strap, you don’t need a separate key ring or carabiner. This keeps your luggage streamlined while still providing a clear identification point.
How to attach your Aluminum Edge Tag in 3 steps
- Step 1: Position the tag: Hold the tag with the Away logo facing outward. Slide the attached strap loop under your suitcase handle’s top bar, near the telescopic handle release button. Make sure the tag sits flat against the handle, not twisted.
- Step 2: Thread and secure: Pull the strap through the loop until snug. Avoid over-tightening—the tag should slide slightly along the handle but not dangle loosely. A common mistake is pulling too tight, which can stress the strap over time.
- Step 3: Verify placement: Tug gently on the tag to confirm it’s secure. The tag should stay in place when you lift the suitcase by the handle. If it shifts, adjust the strap tension. Test the tag before your trip to avoid losing it during transit.
