Electronic Bag Tags
Lufthansa offers you the option of using an electronic bag tag for your trip which has an electronic display instead of the conventional paper bag tag.
You can prepare the digital bag tags conveniently at home via your smartphone and attach them to your travel baggage. On your arrival at the airport, check in your baggage directly at the self-service bag drop kiosks or at the Fast Bag Drop, where available. Find out more about the Fast Bag Drop baggage drop off:
