I guess you might be making a geopolitical point by apparently referring to the "Near East", but that term is pretty much obsolete today, having been overtaken by the term "Middle East", and the airlines in question are known as the ME3 airlines.

The Near East, more commonly now known as the Middle East, is a region of enormous significance for our world today.
