It's quite an indightment that TP can see potential in MAN, yet IB/AEA/JK cannot....
BD would be crazy not to codeshare on the route, though not sure why UA would. It's all dependent on the schedule of course, but I can see SK/CO/US and maybe even EY or EK attaching a code to the LIS service.
The thing I am looking forward to most with this is a better connection to Brazil and hopefully South Africa, too.
