Air France to start A319LR service to Riyadh

From December 1st CDG-RUH will go nonstop with the small Airbus "Dedicate" service, the first fro Saudi Arabia and second such service for the aircraft type in the Middle East, CDG-DOH is the other, at present RUH is served with an A332 via CAI.

What about CDG-KIH (Kish Island) in Iran, when does that start?

Its an interesting concept but will it work? The competition is operating a B777 with at least one stop.

Sounds innovative.

I understand that CDG - RUH is almost exclusively a business destination so it seems easy to attract a decent part of the F/C Class service from the A332 and the B777 service.

To my opinion the beauty of the ACJ is that it requires a small enough load factor to be profitable.

What would happend to the CAI service? Will it contiune to RUH or it would limit to CDG-CAI-CDG?

Sorry to be pedantic, but it's the LR that's being used, not the ACJ.
