Actually very few people around the world would've heard of Manchester, the place is completely irrelevant on a global scale. And the majority of those that have heard of it would only be due to football.
Manchester, MAN, and the region it serves is obviously not New York, London or Paris. Equally it is not a backwater, and there are plenty of reasons why a person may have heard of a region, one of which you have identified.
Quite frankly, I'd expect anyone with any say in a major airline's management teams, including its route planning and commercial teams, to have heard of Manchester. I would not hold cabin crew to the same standard - and it would be unreasonable to do so because it isn't their job.
