BEIRUT, March 20 (Xinhua) -- Lebanon announced Tuesday to resume flights to
Lebanon's national carrier Middle East Airline (MEA) announced that four flights are scheduled on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday every week. MEA has halted its flights to the Iraqi Kurdish region since September 2017 following Iraq's air blockade on Iraqi Kurdistan region in response to its independence referendum. Last week, the Iraqi authorities lifted the ban on international flights to two airports in Erbil and Sulaimaniyah in the semi-autonomous region of Kurdistan.
