A return to LH would be a good move but they need to find routes they can make work. And to those who say they were never good at LH in the last don't know what they are on about. Considering they only had two proper LH aircraft (A330) they made the operation work very well
yes but they made sterling good work of the 757's A300's the venerable DC-10 (and MD11 leases) plus the 767-300

back in the day the BAH and BGR (for MCO) hubs saw a few crews there with onward flights tech stopping in BAH for charters to Goa Agra CMB Male Trivandrum

the 757 went everywhere at first then the A300's took over
the 757 continued with Agra and Kerala

Mombasa tech stopped at Cairo or was it HER?

the A330's came into their own for non-stops to Goa USA/Canada, a big Caribbean programme and Male Maldives

the DC-10 was used for mainly Florida or as a short haul people mover
