Beirut–Rafic Hariri International Airport (BEY) remains the main gateway for Lebanon, with reports in early 2026 indicating it continued to operate despite regional tensions and disruptions affecting some flights. The latest updates show the airport handling both arrivals and departures, though ground access to the facility has at times been impacted by security or crowd movements depending on local events. For travelers, it’s wise to check with individual airlines and the airport’s official channels for real-time flight statuses and road access advisories before heading to BEY.[1][2][5]
