Do you want to use an Electronic Bag Tag on your next flight? Use the Alaska Airlines app to check in & label your baggage.
Alaska Airlines supports electronic bag tags, so you can check in your baggage from home and drop it at the airport in seconds. BAGTAG replaces the paper label. You tag once in the app, and your permanent e-ink display updates automatically for every trip.
When using the BAGTAG for the first time, you must enable the ‘electronic bag tag’ function in the Alaska Airlines app. This step looks different for iOS and Android.
iOS: Go to the Alaska Airlines app settings on your phone and turn on the ‘Use Electronic Bag Tag’ function.
Android: Go to the menu in the Alaska Airlines app, select ‘settings’ and turn on the ‘electronic bag tag’ function.
Start the process by navigating to your flight in the Alaska Airlines app. After that, go to the ‘electronic bag tag’ option and select ‘update bag tag’ to start checking in your bag and create an electronic label.
Step 03
Tag your bag
Enter your e-mail address and proceed. Your e-mail address is only used for sending a confirmation about your bag tag.
Choose ‘check in’ to create your bag tag and activate the BAGTAG by following the steps in the app.
After updating, the Alaska Airlines app shows you the essential information that should be found on the tag’s display. Please check and confirm that the display and the information match. If you notice any discrepancies, or if the transfer has not been successful, you can start a new transfer attempt.
Step 04
Drop off at the airport
Your bag is now ready for its flight. All you have to do is drop off your baggage at the airport at any self-service bag drop machine or a staffed check-in counter.
