Lebanon's tourism takes off: Beirut Airport sees surge in flights, anticipates 1.8 Million arrivals
As Lebanon anticipates a busy summer, Jean Abboud, the President of the Association of Travel and Tourism Agents in Lebanon, revealed that the number of daily flights arriving at the Beirut–Rafic Hariri International Airport has reached 110, including additional flights.
He mentioned, "Middle East Airlines and foreign airlines have organized extra flights during July and August."
Abboud pointed out that on regular days, the airport receives around 90 to 95 planes. However, he affirmed that the number of arrivals and flights to Beirut Airport is expected to increase as the airport typically experiences higher traffic during July and August.
During June, the number of arrivals at Beirut Airport reached 430,000 people. It is anticipated that the number of arrivals will reach 1.8 million during the summer, especially since the influx of visitors tends to rise in August, along with an increase in the number of additional flights by 25 percent.
Abboud stated, "The number of arrivals at Beirut Airport is very high, and the relevant authorities have taken all necessary measures by increasing staff and ensuring fuel supply to accommodate the congestion."
He expressed his hope that the airport would maintain its readiness as Lebanon witnesses a promising tourist season. It is expected that Arab and foreign tourists will constitute approximately 30 percent to 35 percent of the total number of arrivals.
