If I have to check this in at the airport are the straps stowable, and how well does it hold up to baggage handlers?

I have checked this bag twice. The straps with a bit of work end up being pretty out of the way. I however have always checked my hiking bags in a heavy duty clear plastic bag with the top secured with duct tape. Be sure to bring it to the counter out of the trash bag in case they want to search it but after that stuff it in the trash bag and straps are no longer a worry. When you get it at the carousel other than some small tears in the outer sack my backpack has come out clean and intact. FYI.
