Luggage Warranties That Really Count!

While there are many luggage warranties, the when the warranty that says “limited lifetime warranty” you need to read it. Most times it will exclude airline damage. Since luggage rarely gets injured when sitting in your closet, this warranty will not cover repair costs and usually only covers manufacturing defects. You will need to inspect your luggage while traveling and make a claim with the carrier. However, there are warranties that include luggage and cruise line damage for a limited time so you can travel virtually worry free!

Why Hardside Luggage?

Travelers are always asking “why hardside luggage?” They see a lot of it around, but don’t understand the advantages. The hardside luggage is often lighter in weight than the traditional softside luggage. Check the weight to be sure! Hardside luggage also protects the contents better because of the “hard” protection. The disadvantage was that there is no “give” but with the newer hardside luggage, many are expandable when you need extra space.

While many of the hardside luggage collections are imported, the Revo Luna Luggage is made in the U.S.A. It is constructed of durable Makrolon polycarbonate and the Revo Luna luggage is expandable when you need more room. It has dual caster wheels that tend to roll more smoothly than the single spinner wheels. It also has a built-in TSA approved combination lock for airline travel. Revo Luna luggage is sold individually or in 3-piece sets.

The Victorinox Etherius Illusion hardside luggage is made of 100% polycarbonate. It has a TSA approved lock built-in and a recovery program where you can resister your combination in case you forget! It does expand if you need more room. Like most of the hardside luggage offered, it has spinner wheels instead of inline skate wheels. The Victorinox Etherius Illusion hardside luggage is sold as individual pieces, and not as sets. When deciding on hardside vs. softside luggage, look at the selection closely and try one piece to start. Then you can purchase the whole set once you’ve enjoyed your journey! We include FREE shipping and FREE leather luggage tags monogrammed exclusively for you with your initials for quick identification of your bag!
