Haha - well not necessarily that - AA still has a reasonable operation at ORD - but QR has already announced ORD-DOH. (http://www.qatarairways.com/english_...lease_20120814)

However given AA's conservative reputation I wouldn't be shocked if QR started DFW on their own metal - I'd say DFW is a MUST for QR if they want to compete with EK for NA-Asia traffic (and if EK can pull off IAH and DFW with minimal feed, why not QR!).

Having said that who the hell knows who else AA/anyone else is gonna get in bed with. Seems like alliances mean less and less everyday.
