However, if they're only tagged to SFO, explain the situation to the agent and show them the receipt. Because you bought the flights on a single ticket, UA will tag the bags to the final destination.

Thank you both, you confirmed what I suspected. When I view the checked bag summary on UA it does show final destination still, and shows the waived fees there and the charges on HA on the way back.
