Advice for Travelers to Lebanon

Jean Aboud, the head of the Syndicate of Travel and Tourism Offices, advised those wishing to travel during the current period to "purchase their tickets from travel and tourism offices rather than buying them online to avoid many problems that travelers face, especially with the irregularity of flights and the changes that occur, as well as their inability to modify the ticket date. Moreover, they may not be able to cancel the ticket and recover its price if events develop and they decide not to travel. It is worth noting that the financial difference between booking through an office and booking online is minimal." Aboud warned in a statement "travelers against resorting to unlicensed travel and tourism offices that have been active these days, to prevent them from falling victim to fraud." He emphasized that licensed offices remain a guaranteed safeguard for travelers' rights. He encouraged those wishing to travel to visit the syndicate's website to learn about legitimate travel offices.
