The AIRTRAVIA guarantee
Warranty & After-Sales Service – AIRTRAVIA
AIRTRAVIA products are designed to deliver durability, reliability and performance for years to come.
As a consumer, you benefit from:
- Mandatory statutory guarantees (conformity & hidden defects).
- The AIRTRAVIA commercial warranty of 3 years, covering all our travel bags and accessories.
1. Statutory guarantees (France / European Union)
Statutory guarantees apply automatically to any purchase made by a consumer from a professional seller.
1.1. Statutory guarantee of conformity (2 years)
Under Articles L.217-3 and subsequent articles of the French Consumer Code, a product conforms when it:
- Matches the description provided at the time of sale,
- Is fit for the purpose normally expected of a product of the same type,
- Offers the quality and durability a consumer can reasonably expect.
Duration:
You have 2 years from receipt of the product to report a lack of conformity.
Your rights:
- Repair,
- Or replacement,
- And if neither option is possible: a partial or full refund.
This statutory guarantee applies independently of our commercial warranty of 3 years.
1.2. Statutory guarantee against hidden defects
Under Articles 1641 and subsequent articles of the French Civil Code, this guarantee covers defects that were not visible at the time of purchase and that:
- Make the product unfit for its intended use,
- Or significantly reduce its usefulness.
Your rights:
- Return the product for a refund,
- Or keep the product and receive a price reduction.
