Hello there, i thought i'd share the fact that SVA or Saudi Airlines has signed a code share agreement with Air France since December 14. It's brand new and maybe we could add the airline and the respective flights to our schedule!(between Paris and Jeddah flying an A330 or A320) It's a country i fly to regularly both in the sim and in the real world and Jeddah is an awsome airport!! It has a terminal for the Royal family that's like a Palace and another terminal for the Hajj visitors going to the Meccah for the pilgrimage that is huge and looks like hundreds of tents next to each other. Anyway might be an interesting new destination to discover in the Middle East!
Thanks
Math

Ok i just checked and Saudi Airlines is present in the schedule but it's not possible to select a departure airport, so basically it's impossible to display any flight. Just thought i'd share incase it's not normal.
Thanks

| That is completely normal. It should be active tomorrow. It can sometimes take a day once a code share becomes active for it to show up in our schedule. This is just a by-product of not being the RW AFR (although for a new code share to come through only a day after it is released is pretty amazing on any level!).

There's rumours that the codeshare maybe extended to some Domestic and Regional flights, so we could have even more Saudia flights in the schedules..
Will keep you posted on any delevopments.
