KEF is another nonstop option at 6 hours, currently served only seasonally by Play.
Don't forget that there are also year-round flights to PEK (on CA) and PVG (on HO), as well as seasonal flights to ICN I believe.
India sounds likely — although with visa constraints, is there even much demand ex-India?
