Emirates, the leading airline of the United Arab Emirates, has announced it will resume daily flights to Beirut, Lebanon, and Baghdad, Iraq, beginning February 1, 2025. The routes were initially suspended on October 1, 2024, in response to escalated regional tensions following Iran's  retaliation to "Israel's" aggression on the Iranian consulate. 

In a statement released Friday, Emirates confirmed its plans to reintroduce a daily service to Beirut's Rafic Hariri International Airport using a Boeing 777-300ER. The airline also revealed that starting April 1, 2025, an additional daily flight to Beirut will be added to its schedule.
