MAN-BOM on AI? Would say not a chance, good though it would be to have more long haul ex-MAN (or BHX, GLA, etc.. for that matter)!

AI are in dire financial straits. Would expect it to be likely with 9W if at all.

Suspect that the likes of EK, EY, QR and TK already have this particular traffic sown up!

PS nothing about MAN on the AI website.
