Clear backpack bags on Icelandair

This answer describes an alternative solution.
The point is to contain all the 'loose' straps and what not. The material of the bag/wrapper doesn't matter so much.
If you can properly secure any loose parts, the Agent may accept it at bag check.
Check if your departure airport has a service such as Secure Wrap. I would expect to pay about $20 for the service, though I have never used it myself.
In this case, don't take the site to literally. I've never seen an actual bag to contain luggage, just the bag wraps.

20 years ago my backpack was packed in one such a sturdy plastic bag on the way home from a holiday, I do not remember which country but it was certainly not Iceland.
I kept that bad and have used it for a couple of trips till it got ripped while protecting by bagpack in check-in luggage.
It was of a size that covers most backpackers packs with a little bit extra space, but not much more. Very sturdy plastic, the kind that only the most expensive 'building waste' bags are made off and at the same time it did pack small enough that for a short travel I would just carry it with me.
Contact your departure airport and see if they have the kind of bag for sale, otherwise, wrapping in plastic as available on many airports will also do for the airline.
I do not think your outer bag has to be clear, it is just that they offer clear bags for sale for the purpose.
Airlines are happy to accept backpacks in duffel bags that are just big enough, or special nylon 'transport your backpack' sacks.
The bag they gave me back then was more sturdy than either cheap solution.
