Information on the current rev has been posted on the Ciclops 'looking ahead' page. This includes the Titan targeted encounter (pretty well- detailed observational timeline here), and a Voyager-class flyby of Janus, with ISS observations at around 160,000km. This won't be the closest remaining pass of Janus (I think the last few weeks of the prime mission have two closer passes) but it should reveal some previously unseen territory towards the south pole (or unseen at a reasonable distance anyhow)
