Pretty much everything in Eastern Europe would require 76x or 777 for the range. The 757 just can't make it. The only way to do that would be to pull a/c off of routes like BRU, and that just got the 777 upgrade, so it is losing its 767, but not for a 757.
Maybe they'll just do it with a scheduled stop in Goose Bay
