I don't think the expansion will be that aggressive in 2016 simply because they won't have the air frames needed after removing all those old aircraft from the fleet. Also count that some cities will have increased capacity.

I would say five to six new destinations max.

My guess would be,

Atlanta, Philadelphia, Helsinki, one African destination, and one maybe two in Asia.

Any additional A380 service to Australia takes 2.5 air frames to do the job.
