Sorry mate, but MEA I know nothing about. I used to know a guy, and American, who flew for TAM when they had 707's; but that's likely of no use to you. I'd call them and find out what the deal is, I realy don't know. They must be in a bit of a bad mood after haveing their home airport bombed to bits, but if anyone can recover quickly then they can. Try TMA if you want to fly a Bus out of Lebanon as well.
