Scuba Diving equipment will be accepted by Hawaiian Airlines as checked baggage, subject to the applicable fees. As of January 8 2025, Scuba diving equipment will count as one of your standard checked bags, so regular checked baggage fees may apply (along with standard overweight and oversize baggage fees), but it may now also be included as part of your regular free checked bags if applicable (previously this was not allowed, and a fixed fee was always charged for SCUBA gear even if you were entitled to free checked luggage).

All scuba diving equipment is limited to 50lbs/23kg, otherwise additional overweight fees will be charged. A maximum size of 62 linear inches (158 cm) L + W + H is applicable. [AMZ asins='B00NIYJF6U,B001PB6R4Q,B009F1924K,B00ZHPLCS2']

Packing your SCUBA gear for Hawaiian Airlines flights
One item of SCUBA equipment defined as:

One scuba tank (must be empty)
One scuba regulator
One tank harness
One tank pressure gauge
One mask
Two fins
One snorkel
One knife
One spear gun
One safety vest

Please make sure your scuba tank’s regulator valve is completely disconnected from the cylinder and the cylinder is no longer sealed-it must be empty and have an open end so agents can visually inspect inside. If the regulator valve is attached and the cylinder is sealed, the tank cannot be accepted aboard the aircraft, regardless of the reading on the pressure gauge indicator.

Note: Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus (SCUBA) is not to be confused with Emergency Escape Breathing Devices (EEBD), also referred to as Self Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA). TSA requirements mean that we can only allow depleted EEBD or SCBA on board as part of your carryon baggage allowance and not as checked baggage.
