It's important to carefully read your luggage warranty. A lifetime limited luggage warranty usually excludes common carrier damage which includes airline or cruiseline damage. The limited lifetime warranty usually covers manufacturing defects only. You can make a claim with the carrier to cover damages. A Hartmann Absolute Assurance Warranty covers damage to the luggage whether it is caused by an airline or cruiseline. However, not every
Hartmann luggage collection is covered by their Absolute Assurance Warranty. Some of the Hartmann collections have only a limited warranty, excluding damage while traveling. A Briggs & Riley Simple As That warranty covers any type of damage. All of the Briggs & Riley luggage collections are covered by this warranty. With the Hartmann or Briggs & Riley warranty you would only be responsible for shipping costs. Some of the warranties are void when your luggage was purchased at an outlet. You may have to register your luggage purchase with the company before you can use the warranty. When you have questions about the luggage warranty ask one of the luggage specialists to explain the wording. The warranty can offer great value to your luggage purchase!
