However FB simulator
https://www.flyingblue.us/en/programme/more-info/status considers this a Long 2 (3500 to 5000mi) type and FB indeed awards Long 2 XP amount (10XP on Y).
I think FB uses different thresholds from the published ones and/or different distance formula.
Overall a great tool anyhow.
When I put CDG-DXB into the flyingblue.us simulator, I get long 1.

BOS-CDG/AMS are now added to the override list as long 2.
The override list as of this post is:
CDG-BEY: Long 1
CDG-CAI: Long 1
AMS-BOS: Long 2
CDG-BOS: Long 2
If anyone finds more, please post them in this thread and I will update the tool.
