My last tour I used electric bike boxes for boxing my bike (not nearly your size). So much room I didn't need to remove racks and fenders. Will one of those work? I had no trouble checking bike on a domestic flight. I even got the box free from an electric bike rental place that thanked me for taking it off their hands.
