Based on Flightglobal, Egypt Air is placing 3rds of the fleet up for leases including their new 77Ws This would be similar to how Jet Airways leased out their 77Ws to Turkish Airlines. Full story here

Hope I get down to JFK before they lease out all their 777s. I missed out on it when I came down a few weeks ago. I'm not sure if it simply came in on 31L while I was watching 31R arrivals or it was cancelled (like the Delta flights out of Cairo) during the up-rising.
