Yes, they do. And they may operate full fifth freedom traffic rights via HNL.

But of course, just because something is technically possible and legally permitted, doesn't mean that it is financially viable, or the best use of Qantas' resources.

There are lots of markets that Qantas is allowed to operate to, but don't. There are few markets where they are operating at their maximum allowed levels. Having only recently having had the number of seats allowed to Canada from the major markets drastically increase doesn't actually mean that Qantas wants, or needs, to fill the alloted numbers (which, of course, can also be claimed by Virgin Australia).
