Frequently Asked Questions
What baggage allowance does this suit?
The Diablast 68cm is ideal for a 20 Kg checked baggage allowance, plenty for a 1–2 week trip. Always confirm your airline’s baggage policy before travelling.
How does the expansion work?
The Diablast 68cm features an expansion zip around the perimeter of the case that adds approximately 3cm in depth, increasing capacity from 81L to 91L. This is useful when returning with more than you packed, or when packing bulkier items like winter clothing. Note that expanding the case may push it over your airline’s size limits — always check before checking in.
What is a TSA lock?
A TSA lock allows US Transportation Security Administration agents to inspect your bag using a master key without cutting or damaging the lock. Even if you’re not travelling to the US, a TSA lock is a widely recognised international security standard for checked luggage.
What are double spinner wheels?
Double spinner wheels use two wheel sets per corner rather than a single wheel, providing greater stability and a smoother rolling experience — especially on tiled or uneven airport floors. The Diablast’s large 4-wheel spinner system rolls effortlessly in any direction with minimal effort.
Is Polypropylene better than ABS?
Yes — Polypropylene (PP) is generally considered superior to ABS for hardshell luggage. It is lighter, more flexible under impact (meaning it absorbs knocks without cracking as readily), and more durable over time. American Tourister uses PP across its premium range for these reasons.
What does the 3-year warranty cover?
The American Tourister 3-year limited global warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. It does not cover airline damage — if your bag is damaged during a flight, make a claim directly with your airline before you leave the airport.
Are spare parts available?
Yes — spare parts for wheels and handles may be available through American Tourister.
