The alternative to landing in Beirut was landing in Syria? It must have been pretty damn bad in Beirut.
I guess Visa ISN'T everywhere you want to be. :)
If any of us here were to be in command of the plane, what would we have done? I will do the same to get out of the situation at hand.
Good point, when in trouble get out of dodge anyway as fast as you can.
The Pax would get reimbursed anyway, atleast they should be.
Why would any commercial airline be flying into such a war torn unstable country at this point?
