Lebanon to get New Airlines

Gulf News reports on the possibility of the launch of a new - as of yet unnamed - airline from Lebanon:

Georges Mousa, a Dubai-based Lebanese businessman [whose company operates a travel agency and provides various travel services], will launch a full-service airline from his country in the next 18 months, subject to necessary approvals.

The Lebanese Government is expected to open its sky to competition in 2012. Until then its flag carrier Middle East Airline (MEA) will continue to enjoy a monopoly, Fadi Aboud, Minister of Tourism, told Gulf News.

Mousa's attempt will be the second airline venture in Lebanon by Gulf-based investors.
