EVENT OVERVIEW
Join IVAO Lebanon and IVAO Türkiye as we revive a unique historical route connecting two stunning destinations: the shores of Beirut and the idyllic Turquoise Coast of Dalaman. This route first made headlines in 2004, when Lebanese carrier MenaJet inaugurated a charter flight between the two cities. Later in 2020, Pegasus Airlines launched regular scheduled flights, cementing this airbridge as a favorite among summer travelers.
Now, it’s your turn to fly this route in style — under full ATC coverage — during this special bi-directional airbridge event.
Whether you’re flying in for a seaside getaway or departing for a cedar-scented retreat, this event offers the perfect mix of scenery, approach challenges, and history.
