Air France offers their first baggage collection

Air France and Le Tanneur have brought out 6 new ranges of baggage signed "Air France by Le Tanneur" using names from the aeronautical alphabet: Delta, Echo and Tango for the hardside range, and Fox, Zulu and X-ray for the soft range.

The reputation of a major airline has been combined with the expertise and know-how of a renowned leather goods manufacturer to design and produce a complete baggage collection.

The more lightweight, easier to handle and modular "Air France by Le Tanneur" baggage line is the ultimate original accessory for use in the city or at the airport, available in a range of classic elegant and trendy colours – charcoal grey, white, chocolate, grey, black and cherry red.

Whether you’re going on holiday, making a day–trip or taking off for the weekend, the "Air France by Le Tanneur" cabin or hold baggage items are a must-have for passengers looking for travel serenity and comfort. The capacity of these baggage items varies between 29 and 135 litres and their dimension is suited to all types of travel.

In accordance with the new aviation security rules encompassing the restrictions on carrying liquids in the cabin, the Air France and le Tanneur cabin baggage range comes complete with the mandatory transparent plastic bag.

Another essential feature: the glamorous, shiny Tango range features a TSA-approved padlock system, compliant with North-American customs legislation.

"Le Tanneur’s decision to join forces with Air France, symbolizing French luxury, reflects its determination to consolidate its position in the baggage line", states Hervé Descottes, Chairman and CEO of le Tanneur & Cie.

"The legitimate combination of our two prestigious brands constitutes our commitment to offer our passengers high-quality baggage adapted to air travel", she adds.

Air France teamed up with Le Tanneur, on the strength of the latter’s know-how and creativity in designing its new 2008 baggage collection, comprising three soft and three hardside suitcases" says Christine Micouleau, VP Advertising Air France.
