I love my Kook 2015 Pro Players Duffle, but am not sure if I should use to transport my kit while flying.
Cons: 1 - not as solid a support base for bats as in my wheelie bags. 2 - lots of loose straps and mesh that could get messed up and ripped during transit.
Pros: Awesome bag to use once I'm actually at my destination (London - where there will be a lot of train use).
Any thoughts? If anyone has used a duffle to transport kit, whats the best way to pack it, given the lack of a solid support base that is there in wheelie bags?

I've got the same bag mate but I can't help as I've only used it traveling from my car to the club house. I suppose for the straps you could try and tape them together and then tape the straps to the bag so they don't flap about.

You could always use the bag-wrap machines they have at the airports, few quid and they'll wrap it up in a heavy duty cling film type material - you wouldn't need to worry about the straps being torn to pieces during transit then.
Not sure what else to suggest!!

I used my old adidas duffle when I travelled back from Aus, it came back all fine and non damaged

Good suggestions. What about the bats? Are they ok without the extra hard plastic base under wheelie bags?
