One airport, several familiar names

Qlayaat and Rene Mouawad refer to the airport in Akkar, North Lebanon. The IATA code is KYE and the ICAO code is OLKA. This website is an independent planning guide; confirmation of operations, flights and services comes from the operator and airline.

What does the project operator announce?

Sky Lounge Services describes phased development and a 3,000-metre runway. Its terminal-works window is stated as 90 days after the necessary approvals and licences. That conditional period should not be treated as a confirmed opening date for ticket purchases.

How should you start planning?

Start with airline confirmation, then arrange accommodation, transfers and cancellation terms. Do not change a booking involving Beirut airport to Qlayaat solely because of general project news; check the airport name and code on your confirmation.

Useful questions

Is the 90-day window a confirmed opening date?

No. The operator makes it conditional on approvals and licences; check a specific operational announcement before booking.
