Oddly, the press release says "the addition of this new destination" making it sound like Air Arabia hadn't flown there before, even though the AirArabia website still says "Suspended temporarily". Kabul flights previously in 2005 briefly (about a month, 2x weekly?), and 4x weekly from 04 May 2006 (01 May 2006 press release) to 19 September 2006 (cancelled according to 18 September 2006 press release).

Just one between the three airlines, not one each, instead of the total of seven slots they wanted. Unknown which hub Air Arabia would use if it starts Lyon flights, maybe Egypt or Morocco?
