I don't think they are attempting to re-deploy wide-bodies. With their current fleet I'm sure they have a good idea of the best utilization of their 777 / 787 / 333 fleets.
I assume they'll look to try new long + thin routes primarily, as well as *possibly* augment capacity some of the routes the wide-bodies already fly.
