Arkia chief: A321LR first single-aisle to beat 757-300 economics
Israeli carrier Arkia had considered the Bombardier CSeries, with a view to acquiring 10 aircraft, before being convinced to look at the single-aisle Airbus. Speaking to FlightGlobal in Hamburg, chief executive Nir Dagan said Arkia took an interest in Bombardier’s then-C130 proposal. “We wanted to buy 10,” he says, but says the airframer “froze” the programme.

And this is now Bombardier's problem with the C-series. Airbus will try to move airlines into "their" product offerings and make 100% of the profit, vs. selling the C-series and making 50% of the profit.
If you're going to take A330-900's, it's only logical to also take the A321-LR to reduce your cross training costs.
I agree 100%. But tell me who would normally cross shop a C-series and the A321. It's like test driving a Miata, but going with Yukon instead.
