Another great carrier back when I used to fly in the Middle East was MEA Air Liban thru Beirut.

Good Food always provided and the Fruit Basket was such a great idea coming from the Saudi. Fresh Cold Apples.....

That changed once the war started in 75 but I always remember Hamra Street for the great Cinemas and the Phoenicia Hotel by the Pigeon Rock.

Alia Royal Jordanian was another alternative and I remember the scream from those Boeing 720's as they used to roar overhead by the ARAMCO complex in Dhahran. I actually learnt to play Golf with me Dad there on the Slicks ! Handicap still awful now...

Memories.....
