In 2024, a baggage handler who said he works for Dublin Airport, told the Irish news organization RSVP Live that travelers should not tie ribbons to bags as it could "cause confusion with the scanning process."
Fox News Digital reached out to Dublin Airport for comment.
A Transportation Security Administration (TSA) spokesperson told Fox News Digital that he does not see an issue with attaching ribbons to checked bags, but recognizes that they could be caught in the conveyor belt, "so tape or stickers might be a better way to mark bags for quick identification at travelers' destinations."
