MAN-BAH on QR?
Surely a filing error - I can see no schedules loaded - but the GDS is showing a flight to Bahrain operated by Qatar.
Anyone know anything?

Seriously though my bet is it's a filing error. BAH is Gulf Air territory and QR don't serve it yet from anywhere except DOH

As it happens, when the QR22 initially pinged on the ground at MAN yesterday morning on FR24, it also showed its route as MAN-BAH, but then changed back to MAN-DOH on takeoff.
A number of QR operated into BAH last week, due to excessive holding at DOH caused by storms. One of the Manchester services ended up there for a splash & dash.
Temporary weather related issues.

BA 105 from LHR to DXB did a splash and dash yesterday into DOH for similar reasons, excessive holding due to waiting on weather at DXB, it's an issue this time of year, either due to fog or thunder storms.

MAN-TFS was showing on GDS this morning for Norwegian, on a Tue/Sat. It keeps being added and removed, so something is going on. It was announced as a year round route and on enquiring, NAX had said 'the summer schedules for Manchester were not completed' and have since added a 3rd ALC. TFS was announced as a year round route while LPA was announced as winter only, and on further enquiry there was no confirmation from NAX that MAN-TFS was axed, just a 'keep an eye on newsletters' etc.
So, while there is a chance MAN-TFS has gone for the summer, it's not over until the fat lady sings.
And the fact the route 'ends' next month means nothing either, as BCN-MAN was only announced with a 2 week lead in time.
