Ciao a tutti,
Sto cercando di scoprire se qualcuno conosce un’officina di riparazione a Helsinki/Vantaa/Espoo che può riparare un bagaglio danneggiato a causa del mal di errore della compagnia aerea.
Ho una borsa da tourister americana che ha una crepa nella parte inferiore (lato pneumatico). Attualmente è inutilizzabile se la borsa ha cose. Mi chiedevo se riesco a ripararlo da un’officina di riparazione locale? Se qualcuno di voi è a conoscenza di un negozio, allora fammelo sapere. Grazie!

Found this from Google, apparently they have a store in Kamppi (near Helsinki city center):

Their company info page says that they work on American Tourister bags, but yeah otherwise I don’t know anything about the company.
This page lists service points: https://www.supportandgo.com/ServiceInfo/ServicePointLocation
American Tourister is a cheaper brand by Samsonite, so possible all places which service Samsonite can also service American Tourister.
Those can’t be repaired just buy a new one and ditch it.
Suurati places has some capacity to repair bags.
I had similar issue. I had to gey a Written statement from a repair shop my luggage is not repairable. They gave an estimated money back. For my damaged luggage.
I’ve repaired my own bag with 2-part epoxy. Patch it from the inside. You can get from Motonet, prisma etc
That is not really repairable – the shell is a single piece of formed plastic and once it begins to crack, that is the end of it.
You can patch it to get some more life out of it if you want. Cut a a piece of suitable plastic (2mm acrylic perhaps) to shape and glue it to the inside of the case using a two-part epoxy glue. That will get you a bit more service life.
Next, time, choose a case with a stronger interior construction and not with the force of any impact on the wheels transmitted directly to the plastic case.
Report it to the airline, they should cover costs for luggage damaged or a replacement if it’s beyond being repaired.
