They are trying for Canada. It was all done and worked out but an 11th hour protest from the US some believe stopped the route-despite advertising by both carriers and tickets having been sold! politics is a powerful thing. Probably another reason which played a part in A339 over 789; why would they invest in Boeing when they are politically blocked from flying there.
JFK was an MEA destination in the glory days of Lebanon and MEA on the 747-200's. BEY-CDG-JFK. One can but hope. I think they'd do well with a Detroit and Montreal service.
