LTU streicht Flug nach Beirut
Nach den israelischen Luftangriffen auf den Beiruter Flughafen haben Luftansa, Middle East und LTU vorerst den Flugbetrieb in die libanesische Hauptstadt eingestellt. So hat die LTU den für heute Abend geplanten Flug von Düsseldorf aus abgesagt.
Betroffen sind 200 Passagiere. Auch der Rückflug mit 56 Fluggästen wurde storniert. Ob die LTU am Montag wie geplant Beirut anfliegt, wird die Gesellschaft am Sonntag entscheiden.

Wird wohl vorerst nichts mehr werden mit Flügen nach Beirut, nachdem die Israelis heute den zweiten Tag hintereinander den Beiruter Flughafen bombardiert haben. Hier ein Ausschnitt aus dem Daily Star Lebanon von heute:
Throughout the morning, Israeli fighter-bombers pounded runways at Beirut's airport for a second day, apparently trying to ensure its closure after the Lebanese national carrier, Middle East Airlines, managed to evacuate its last five planes to Amman. One bomb hit close to the terminal building.

Die Libanesische Staatslinie Middle East Airlines nimmt ihren Flugbetrieb wieder auf, nachdem es ihnen gelungen war, ihre Airbusse in letzter Sekunde vor der Zerstörung der Startbahnen in Beirut auszufliegen. Vorläufiger Heimatflughafen wird nun Damascus (Syrien). Hier der Artikel aus dem Daily Star Lebanon:
BEIRUT: Middle East Airlines (MEA) will resume flights from Damascus to certain destination as of Friday to serve all the Lebanese and foreigners stranded in Syria, the chairman of the airline, Mohammad Hout, said on Wednesday. MEA flew all of its nine Airbus planes to Jordan and Cyprus from Rafik Hariri International Airport after the runways were bombarded by Israel jets a week ago.
Thousands of Lebanese, Arabs and other foreigners fled Lebanon to Syria to escape the intense fighting.
MEA said in a statement that its planes would fly to Frankfurt, Riyadh, Paris, Jeddah, Kuwait City and Dubai.
"This is a temporary measure and we hope to resume flights from Beirut once the fighting ends," Hout told The Daily Star.

The chairman added that MEA may resume flights from Cyprus soon if the situation remained the same.
Hout said that MEA agreed with the Syrian authorities to allow the carrier to use Damascus airport for at least 10 days and until the war ends.
The chairman said MEA incurred losses from the war but refused to disclose any figures.
The airline had been counting on the tourism season this summer to boost its revenues.
Before the war broke out, MEA reported good results in the first six months of the year as more and more tourists booked flights aboard the national carrier. - The Daily Star
