No news about South America. It may take a year or 2 before something is added there.
Thanks for the fast reply! Of course I am still waiting for even more information

. (see the rest of this post)
Taipei would definitely make sense given the lack of intense competition on routes to Europe. Denpasar will probably be added via Singapore right? Certainly a good option to use the long ground time at SIN. I am quite surprised that we don't see any additions to the China network. Personally I would love to see NKG, but from the company's perpective I would choose Chengdu first. Can anybody clarify on the plans for China please?
Kinshasa will be lucrative for obvious reasons, Abuja might also make sense, but with less than 7 flights per week initially. I am astonished not to see Algiers, Gaborone and Maputo on the list (especially Algiers is a MUST have for EK).
Brussels service needs to be launched soon, otherwise it might be too late when Etihad/Qatar will continue their expansion. Stockholm and Oslo also seem quite logical to me, but how about Kiev (was a rumour some time ago)?
Please add more information/other destinations you have heard off!
