Pretty sure about this, but in-shell/husk durian I think is only allowed as checked luggage and has to be air tight as to not taint other people's luggage. But I haven't done enough travel in ASEAN to see if anyone has tried to bring durian pods on board (or if they can even get through security).
If you could get it in cabin, I suspect it would be one of the few fruits you could taste (vs. apples/pineapples/oranges and such) while up in the air.
