I have a 6-hour transit in BEY coming up in about a month's time. I was originally ticketed via CAI on QR, but with all the fuss at the moment, I've been rerouted to BEY. I've never been to BEY (or Lebanon) before, so I'm really not sure what to expect.

I'm arriving in QR F and transferring to A3 Y, with a 6-hour layover. Hopefully I can get a boarding pass for the A3 flight and go to a nice lounge for a while, but I'm not sure of what the process will be.

Do I have to clear customs/immigration, and wait until manual check-in opens or is there a less hassly way through?
