U.S. Embassy calls U.S. citizens’ attention to the fact that amid heightened tension in the region, some airlines are adjusting their flight schedules in Lebanon. Middle East Airlines (MEA) has announced that some flights originally due to land in Beirut on the evening of July 28 will now land on the morning of July 29. Other airlines are reportedly considering temporary alterations to their flight plans as well. The Embassy encourages U.S. citizens traveling to or from Lebanon to monitor their flight status closely, to be aware that itineraries could change with little or no warning, and to make alternate plans.
