Important Notes
This luggage is designed for checked baggage use and meets standard airline size requirements for large checked suitcases. Always verify specific airline restrictions before travel, as size and weight limits may vary. The 10-year limited warranty covers manufacturing defects under normal use but does not cover damage from misuse, overpacking, or normal wear and tear. To maintain the appearance and functionality of the polycarbonate shell, clean with a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners. The expandable zipper allows for increased capacity but should be used within reasonable limits to preserve the integrity of the shell and zipper mechanism.
