Lebanon will reopen its international airport in Beirut for commercial flights July 1 but with reduced air traffic, the office of Prime Minister Hassan Diab said today.
Beirut Rafic Hariri International Airport has been closed to flights since March 18 to help contain the spread of the coronavirus. Beginning next month, the airport will operate at 10% capacity compared with last year’s air traffic. Private flights out of the airport can resume June 24.
