Emirates has announced it will resume flights to Beirut starting 1 February 2025, restoring daily services to Lebanon’s Rafic Al Hariri International Airport.
The Dubai-based carrier will use its Boeing 777-300ER aircraft in a three-class configuration, with more than 5,000 seats available weekly in both directions.
From 1 April 2025, the airline plans to expand its Beirut operations further by introducing a second daily flight. This new morning service will also be operated with the same Boeing 777-300ER aircraft.
The schedule for the resumed Beirut flights is as follows: the first daily flight, EK953, will leave Dubai at 11:30, arriving in Beirut at 14:00. The return flight, EK954, will depart Beirut at 15:30, landing in Dubai at 21:20.
From April, the second daily flight, EK957, will take off from Dubai at 07:30, arriving in Beirut at 10:30. The return flight, EK958, will depart Beirut at 12:05 and arrive in Dubai at 16:55.
In addition to the Beirut service, Emirates will also resume daily flights to Baghdad from 1 February 2025. Both routes underline the airline’s commitment to expanding its Middle East network and meeting growing passenger demand in the region, Emirates said.
