I don't think there is an F cabin on any of QR's MAN flights is there?

In collating OW fliers from regional airports this would be useful information to display….

After writing the above sentence I then went to the OW destination map and I was astounded at the lack of direct flights. Only MAN is serviced by an OW airline that originates somewhere other than London. The entire list is as per:

American Airlines: JFK, ORD, HOU*
Sun Air: BLL, GOT
Qatar Airways: DOH
Finnair: HEL

*with a stop in JFK
HOU is a strange one there because, theoretically, any AA destination is available with a connection at JFK. I'm puzzled as to why it's specifically included on that list.
