Least put your name and phone number on the inside. No one ever thinks they are going to leave an item behind. Or, someone else accidentally takes your bag because it looks the same.

Yup. And if you have luggage that has a unique ID number (Victorinox, Tumi) make sure your registration is kept up-to-date.
Far East Label Pte Ltd provides Printed Airline Luggage Tag helps in easy check-in-out processes at the airport. Before your trip, print your bag tag wherever you are. The details having the customer's name, flight number, destination on the outside of the luggage & duplicate copied details have lied on the inside. Check your baggage easier & quicker.
Has anyone ever actually been contacted by an airline from one of those tags? It has been years since the airline lost one of our bags and they returned it but it was not through the name tag but with the bar code. Even when I forgot something in the overhead bin many years ago, which was tagged, they never called me. I had to go to their lost and found and pick it out.

Not necessarily the airline but if another passenger picks up the wrong bag without realizing it, they can get in touch with you by calling your phone number or sending you an email message to the address shown on the tag.
Once I picked up my daughter from the airport and she inadvertently took the wrong bag from the carousel. (It looked exactly like her bag.) She didn't realize the mistake until we got home and she tried to open the locked bag. She called the bag's owner on the number shown on the luggage tag, apologized profusely, and we went back to the airport to get the bag to its rightful owner and pick up my daughter's bag.
I put a cellphone number and an email address on my luggage tags these days.
This^^^^. And my cell phone has a phone number of a contact person just in case it get lost.
If you don't like to put your home address on the luggage tag, you could put an address of your destination INSIDE the luggage, on the top of your things and the period of time you will be there. That way if the luggage is lost or displaced, it will not go back home but will be sent to your hotel or other
travel destinationn. Make sure there is a phone/email they could use to contact you.
Hell, I don't even put our home address on our personal business cards, let alone on our luggage! Cell and email addresses only!
I have personal "business" cards like this too, they're cheap & handy, I just have name, phone#, email & insert them in the luggage tag & throw a couple inside the bag itself.
I typically add my immediate destination, usually a hotel at the arrival, & if using my preferred carrier I add my FF# too.
