Beirut Skyline
A panoramic view of the 'Paris of the Middle East' as the plane banks over the Mediterranean for landing.
Port of Beirut
The industrial docks and the Mediterranean coastline are clearly visible during the final approach.
The right side is the 'money' side for the final approach into BEY. As planes often circle over the sea to align with the runway, you will get a full view of the city and the mountains. Sunset flights on this side are particularly stunning as the light hits the limestone mountains.

Ad-Dahna Desert
Witness the striking red sand dunes of the central Arabian peninsula shortly after departure.
The Dead Sea
On clear days, the shimmering turquoise waters of the lowest point on Earth are visible to the far west.
Mount Hermon
The snow-capped peak marking the intersection of Lebanon, Syria, and Israel stands out prominently.
Bekaa Valley
The fertile green agricultural heartland of Lebanon nestled between two mountain ranges.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct glare from the sun. This side is ideal for spotting the transition from the arid Saudi landscape to the lush Levant greenery. Keep an eye out for the southern Lebanese mountain ridges during the initial descent.
