Barbara, how about "arrivederla"? Am I right that it's more
formal than "arrivederci" and used less frequently?

That's correct. It's rare to hear "arrivederla".

"Arrivederla" has a somewhat Tuscan sound. Almost unheard outside
Tuscany (where, often, it is pronounced as "arrivedella" and may be made
to sound either respectful or mocking).
