2 I wanna see the TSA advance team that goes in to certify the Beirut airport before flights commence. Amazed to see they have a working main deck loader there. I'd definitely plan on a 3 hour ground time with zero fuel uplift, live in/ferry out to expedite the transit. It has been a HUGE pain in the tuckus to get freight to Lebanon since forever. Actually dropped cargo in Damascus and convoyed it across the Green Line if you can believe that. Gotta say that the freight rate is gonna be sky high to drop cargo off there but somebody will be willing to pay it (cash in advance).
