They did barely make their connection, even with having to claim their bags from UA and re-checking them with HA.
On a single ticket, the bags should have been checked through automatically. On separate tickets, because HA is not in Star Alliance, the official policy is that they will not interline. There are several reports of exceptions for Premier members.
