TRIPREPORT | Middle East Airlines (ECONOMY) | Airbus A321neo | Paris CDG - Beirut
I was prepared for many things on this MEA flight, but not for it to be that good. Middle East Airlines might even be able to compete with Qatar Airways or Emirates offering a product like this!

And this is an airline from a country undergoing severe economic problems. Imagine how it would be if it were the contrary case. Puts many other airlines to shame. Bravo MEA and may your beautiful Lebanon prosper and flourish once again!

What a smooth landing by a single Aisle aircraft... I didn't realize it has landed until I saw that the wind breakers came up... and what a lovely service.
Is no one going to mention that landing? That’s gotta be one of the smoothest landings I’ve ever seen.

Your videos are actually such high quality, keep it up Simply Aviation! The BEST trip reports on KZread!!
Glad to see you upload this, you’re one of my favorite KZread channels and always look forward to your videos! 🙂
The livery fits the a321neo splendidly
Finally ...!!! U guys r back ... 🙌🙌 Missed Ur TripReports of various airlines & aircrafts🙁 Happy to see when Ur notification arrived on YT✌️❤️
bruh for real I was waiting for the touchdown what a smooth landing
Let’s don’t forget, MEA was always a class airline, I remember flying with them back in the 70s , always impeccable service, I’m glad they maintain their high standards.
Simply Aviation you are simply the best, it's so nice to have you back on my KZread, MEA is such a fantastic airline but little is said about their excellent customer service
What a good surprise, MEA are pretty good. Good caterkng, ok choice of movies, great service and a new aircraft. Fantastic work Felix and good to see Simply Aviation back on the tube,
Fantastic trip report Felix! I’m so glad to see a new upload here again!😸

Great video to come back with! Really impressed with the the product on offer here. Nice to see!
Impressive meal service - Elegant and comfortable economy cabin !! 👌
WOW! That is a gorgeous plane and that was some gorgeous hospitality!
if I could make a suggestion, i think that a cool tripreport would be one of united's 757, especially transatlantic. I know you've done 757s before, but for some reason I really associate united with the model, and it'd be cool to check it before they're retired.

Yeah, I love it. MEA has a perfect current fleet that includes the Airbus A330-200, Airbus A320-200, and the Airbus A321neo, which has the most beautiful livery ever. MEA even have the Airbus A330-900neo and the Airbus A321XLR on order.

Yeah, when the situation gets better there, they will hopefully start going to the US and Canada. Maybe in 2026, when they receive their Airbus A330-900neo’s, they will put them on the US and Canada routes from Beirut, since it will be their largest aircraft in their fleet, and the a330neo is capable of flying very long distances. The MEA chairman did want to order the Airbus A350-900, but they decided to leave that to the future, since it is not needed as of now. If they end up ordering the Airbus A350-900, they will probably put those in the US and Canada routes.
