      3. c. might cause injury or damage, or pose a safety risk to Hawaiian, its employees, its guests, any aircraft or other equipment, or baggage, because of its packaging, nature, contents, or characteristics (e.g. sharp objects, paints, corrosives or other hazardous materials, baggage secured by “bungee” type cords, or items with foul or offensive or odors such as durian fruit and fermented fish sauces); or

Baggage fees are assessed based upon the destination to which your baggage is checked.
