I see now that you had already clarified "only the stroller" - the one other suggestion I have is that when performing a similar maneuver I like to drop mine at curbside checkin before parking the car, if you are traveling in your own vehicle and parking at or near the airport and you have enough time. Totally agreed that the blue bags are mainly for scuff protection and to provide an obvious handle and place to tag the item. Otherwise the item will have to be durable to go in without a proper case.
