Turkish have probably what, 20 odd 333/77W to the states each day? I doubt any single airport could handle that much extra footfall in security / widebody parking requirements really.
In the winter it wouldn't be a problem and for those that fly overnight to the US there wouldn't be an issue either but for those that are flying during the day capacity would be an issue there is a severe lack of wide-bodied stands at MAN but the expansion should sort this even though it would be late for TK
