Etihad staying 10 weekly per the above.

However the site quoted basically just takes information from GDS
and there is plenty of time for this to change
As you say, that site only reflects what is in GDS at the time, and EY have confirmed themselves that MAN will be double daily 'by year end', which is more than likely the winter schedule.

Potentially MAN-CLT with US as I doubt DUB-CLT
I would agree. MAN has always been a good station for US, so would not be surprised to see MAN-CLT added in 2012.

AA still aren't year round daily on MAN-ORD and it's still a B757
But one of the very few Euro-ORD routes to stay this winter, so cant be doing that bad for them.

Realistically, going west I could see:

-Air Canada to YYZ, as the competition that made them leave originally has gone, and with MAN-LHR connections dwindling for them, may be persuaded

-UA/CO to ORD, a route that seems to be banded around a lot for them. Maybe a new IAD depending on what they do with the EWR hub.

-US to CLT, as mentioned above.

And thats it really.
Anything else would be a bonus.
