I would like to remind TalkBoard that in its last term it approved forums for Qatar and Turkish Airlines.

Among the reasons given (indeed, as I recall it was the main reason) was that people did not know that Qatar was in the Middle East and that Turkey is in Europe. Hence, they did not know where to post about these airlines.

I would give odds that more travelers know what section of the world they are flying to than what alliance a particular airline is a member of.
