What about those luggage warranties? Exactly what do they mean? Well, to begin with, different warranties cover different items. Some of these warranties are all inclusive, while others rule out everything. You will need to actually read the warranty for the information, but these are some of the best. Briggs & Riley luggage has a “simple as that” warranty. The Briggs & Riley warranty on their luggage and briefcases simply covers everything mechanical. If a seam opens it’s covered. If a wheel breaks it’s covered. It doesn’t matter if you, the taxi driver, or the plane you took to Brazil has done the damage. The warranty will cover the cost of the repair. The Briggs & Riley warranty does not cover cleaning of the luggage, or the contents inside the luggage. But, as simple as that, any damage will be repaired for you at no charge. AND, it is as simple as that! The newest of the Travelpro luggage in the Platinum 6 series has a “worry free” warranty. This warranty covers all repairs even damage by an airline. It does not cover cleaning or the contents of the luggage either. But, you do not have to worry about your luggage needing a repair when traveling with this new, Platinum 6 Travelpro luggage. Another warranty that covers airline or cruise line damage is the Boyt Mach 5 luggage warranty. Boyt luggage calls this “the best luggage warranty” and it covers any repairs on wheels, handles, zippers, seams, etc. Victorinox Swiss Army luggage has a “carry with confidence” warranty. This warranty does cover airline, bus and train damage. None of the warranties cover cleaning or the clothing inside the luggage. These warranties do give you peace of mind, because you know that you are not responsible for the cost of repairs, or for making a claim at the airport after a long trip. The usual luggage warranty, which is generally called a “limited” warranty, excludes normal wear and tear, abuse and common carrier damage such as plane, train or bus handling. It does cover defects in material and workmanship. However, since most damage occurs when the luggage is being used on a plane, bus or train, these warranties are not as good as the “simple as that” from Briggs & Riley luggage, or the “worry free” warranty from Platinum 6 Travelpro luggage, or the Boyt Mach 5 luggage “best” warranty. With these more inclusive warranties, you are only responsible for returning the luggage to a repair facility that handles that particular brand. Travel will certainly be easier now that you know about luggage warranties!

Each Athalon duffel has 15 pockets to organize you. There’s multiple pockets inside and outside for all of your small items. The interior frame allows you to collapse the duffel for easy storage under the bed or in the back of a closet. There’s even a top outside lid pocket designed for last minute items! The cinch compression straps will keep everything safely secured and allow you to make the bag smaller if you haven’t over packed???? Need something from inside the duffel? The snap up gate with mesh pockets will unzip completely allowing you to remove something from inside the bag without disturbing the rest of the contents. And there’s even shoe pockets inside! It’s easy to see why we all love packing and traveling with those wheeled Athalon duffels!
