Would you feel safe traveling on an Arab airline to an Arab country that has an OK relationship with the US? Let's limit this to countries that have nonstop flights from the US. 

If you choose the third option, please elaborate below.

Thanks!

No issues ever reported, so unless a frum woman without any family or friends got abducted and has never been heard from again, I think you're fine.
