Hakkında Middle East Airlines

Middle East Airlines (IATA: ME, ICAO: MEA) is a LB airline and a member of the SkyTeam alliance.

Middle East Airlines (MEA) is Lebanon's national carrier and one of the Middle East's longest-established airlines, a member of the SkyTeam alliance. Despite Lebanon's political and economic challenges, MEA has maintained service continuity and a reputation for quality throughout decades of regional instability. The airline's distinctive cedar tree livery is an iconic symbol of Lebanese national identity.

Did you know? Middle East Airlines is one of the world's oldest airlines to have survived continuous service through a prolonged civil war — operating through Lebanon's 15-year civil war (1975-1990) while most other national carriers in conflict zones ceased operations.
