It's not "official dive luggage," so if you want a dive flag on it you'll need some paint pens or super glue or something... but, I found an Jeep brand upright rolling duffle (http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=8586176) on clearance at Walmart that should make a pretty good checked bag for dive gear. They had 25" and 29" versions - $30 and $40 respectively.
I think I probably could fit my BC, wetsuit, etc. in the smaller one, but not sure about my husband's gear. These bags stand upright, have wheels and a pull handle, plus another handle on top so you can lift them easily. There are some extra exterior pockets, but those are nothing to write home about.
Just thought I'd mention in case anyone else was looking for something cheap-ish to cart their gear in. These bags caught my eye because they were shaped similarly to the dive-specific bags I saw at our LDS, only without the fin pockets.
