The verdict, explained

At 21.7x14.8x10", the Amazon Basics 21-Inch Hardside Carry-On exceeds Hawaiian Airlines's 22x14x9" carry-on sizer — it is 0.8" too big on its second-longest side, 1" too big on its shortest side. Expect it to be turned away at the gate and gate-checked. On Hawaiian Airlines: Carry-on free; 25 lb cabin-bag weight limit enforced. It is too large for Hawaiian Airlines's under-seat personal-item space, so it has to go overhead or be checked.

Airlines measure at the widest external point — wheels, handles, and bulging pockets all count. Pull soft-bag compression straps fully tight before you size it.
