Sustainable Materials & Construction
We manufacture every Aviator Checked Luggage suitcase from 100% recycled polycarbonate, a material that offers exceptional impact resistance while reducing waste. The shell undergoes a proprietary eggshell finishing process that hides scratches and scuffs, so your paravel checked luggage maintains its like-new appearance trip after trip.
Our Japanese Hinomoto wheels are engineered to last, with sealed bearings that resist dirt and moisture. The telescoping aluminum handle extends smoothly to three height positions and locks securely in place. Every zipper is coated with a water-resistant finish to protect contents from light rain and spills during baggage handling.
Interior Organization & Packing Capacity
The Aviator’s interior is thoughtfully designed to accommodate 7-10 days of travel essentials. Our compression pad system on both sides of the case lets you pack more while minimizing wrinkles — simply zip the pads closed to compress clothing and create additional space.
The zippered mesh divider keeps clean and worn items separated, with four reinforced tie-down straps anchoring contents during transit. We include two interior zippered pockets for toiletries, chargers, and small accessories. The flat interior base means your paravel checked luggage sits stable when opened on hotel floors or luggage racks.
TSA Lock & Security Features
We integrate a TSA-approved combination lock directly into the luggage frame, eliminating the need for separate padlocks. TSA agents can open and inspect your bag using their master key, then relock it without damage.
To set your personal three-digit code, press the reset button on the lock’s interior side while the case is open, choose your combination, then release the button. We recommend choosing a memorable code and storing it in your phone’s notes app as backup.

Questions About the Aviator Checked Luggage
The Aviator Checked Luggage measures 27 inches high, 18 inches wide, and 11 inches deep (68.5 × 45.7 × 27.9 cm). These dimensions include wheels and handle, making it compliant with standard checked baggage policies for all major U.S. airlines.
The interior capacity is 72 liters, which comfortably accommodates 7-10 days of clothing and travel essentials. The suitcase weighs 9.8 pounds empty, leaving ample room within typical 50-pound airline weight limits.
Yes, every Aviator Checked Luggage suitcase is manufactured from 100% recycled polycarbonate. This durable material offers the same impact resistance as virgin polycarbonate while reducing environmental waste.
We also use recycled materials in our interior linings and offset 100% of carbon emissions from manufacturing and shipping. The eggshell finish is applied using a low-waste process, and all packaging materials are recyclable or compostable.
The Aviator features a built-in TSA-approved combination lock integrated into the luggage frame. You can set your own three-digit code, and TSA agents can open the lock with their master key for inspection without damaging your bag.
To program your code, open the suitcase and locate the small reset button on the lock’s interior side. Press and hold the button, dial your desired three-digit combination, then release the button. The lockable zipper pulls secure to the lock mechanism, creating a closed loop around the main compartment.
Our lifetime guarantee covers all manufacturing defects, broken wheels, cracked shells, handle malfunctions, and zipper failures for as long as you own the Aviator. If you experience any structural issues, contact our customer service team with photos and proof of purchase.
We’ll repair or replace your paravel checked luggage at no cost. The guarantee does not cover damage from airline mishandling (though our shells are designed to withstand rough treatment), cosmetic wear from normal use, or damage from improper storage.
No, the 27-inch Aviator Checked Luggage is designed specifically for checked baggage and will not fit in aircraft overhead bins. It exceeds the standard carry-on size limits set by airlines.
If you need a suitcase for overhead bin storage, we recommend our 21-inch Aviator Carry-On, which meets size restrictions for all major U.S. carriers. The carry-on features the same recycled materials, TSA lock, and lifetime guarantee as this checked model.
Clean the exterior with a damp microfiber cloth and mild soap — avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that can dull the finish. The textured eggshell surface naturally hides minor scratches and scuffs that would be visible on smooth luggage.
For the wheels, occasionally apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the bearings if they become stiff. Store your suitcase in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. The recycled polycarbonate shell is impact-resistant and designed to maintain its appearance through years of travel.
The Aviator Checked Luggage includes built-in compression pads, a zippered mesh divider, four tie-down straps, and two interior zippered pockets. These features provide substantial organization for most travelers.
For additional packing organization, we offer a separate Packing Cube Set designed to fit perfectly within the Aviator’s interior dimensions. The three-cube set is made from recycled nylon and helps further compartmentalize clothing, shoes, and accessories for easier access during your trip.
