Not only is it transported in wet weather, it's left out on the tarmac for hours uncovered in all sorts of weather. This happened to me a couple of years ago when my Qantas flight MEL-HBA was delayed five hours due to "engineering problems" (I.e. age of Qantas 737s). I could look out on the tarmac and see the rain beating down on it.
When I finally got my lugagge, everything inside it was drenched. When I raised the matter with Qantas, they claimed that they could not send anyone out to cover the trolley because of "health and safety issues."
Moral of story: don't use soft lugagge bags!
