Lebanon Tourism Slumps, Hope in August
Passenger traffic at Beirut Airport in July experienced a 9% decline compared to 2025, with a drop of between 30% and 35% in June 2026 compared to the same month of the previous year, although part of this decline was offset in July. August, the peak of the tourist season, is expected to see increased activity approaching August 2025 figures in terms of passengers and flights. Overall, the tourism sector has so far recorded a decline of approximately 33% compared to last year, with weaker numbers of tourists from the UAE, Iraq, Egypt, and Jordan, as well as a reduction in tourist spending due to rising travel costs, especially for expatriates living in distant countries.
