Nice to see a confirmation on this. Personally, I'm pretty excited for this adaptation and they can even make it into a 2-cour.

Great news.. But aside from some good action, there's also quite a bit of politics and exposition in the manga. Should be interesting to see how they are going to convey this to anime.

Actually, "Arabian" tends to refer to the horses or the Arabian Peninsula. Having not read the series yet but looked some of up, this series is of a fantasy Turkey. anime8manga.wordpress.com/2014/10/02/shoukoku-no-altair/ says it is specifically set between 1400-1600.
