BOS seems high on the list of likely new destinations, notwithstanding fuel cost from the west coast. Nonstop service to high-demand destinations seem the best strategy to predispose good load factors. I'd put my money on DFW or HOU, DEN, ATL, and MIA after that.

Also possible are new routes between existing destinations, a recent addition of which being JFK-LAS. Maybe IAD-LAS, or SAN-LAS, or SAN-JFK?
An FA told me that ORD is next starting in October... but that was a couple months ago and it is possible they were giving out bad information (to confuse competitors perhaps). I choose to believe what I was told (thinking positively).
After that I'm guessing BOS, DEN or MIA. Last year, a GA told me that they will be serving the major Canadian airports too.
