Air France and CTC bike bag

[duncan_harris]

Anyone tried travelling on Air France (from UK to France) using the CTC transparent plastic bike bag (http://www.ctcshop.org.uk/ctc-plastic-bike-bag/#more)?

Air France say on their web site (http://www.airfrance.co.uk/GB/en/common/guidevoyageur/pratique/bagage_equipement_sport_airfrance.htm):

place your bicycle in a protective container (cardboard*, hard plastic). Bicycle containers are available for purchase at most Air France check-in desks.

Technically the CTC bag is a protective container, but obviously not cardboard or hard plastic.
