What ACC to BEY looks like
The ACC to BEY sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Accra ACC to Beirut BEY is a long haul sector of 4,830 km by great circle, flown nonstop 3 times a week.
At the cruise speed this site models for 4,830 km, 880 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 6h 19m.
Accra ACC is a smaller airport in the network held here, 32 scheduled destinations and 67.9 departures a day. Beirut BEY has 45 destinations and 86.9 departures a day.
Beirut runs 2 hours ahead of Accra in January and 3 hours ahead in July, because the two ends do not change their clocks together.
The pair sits between Africa and the Middle East, a corridor where the site already publishes 18 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on ACC to BEY from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| ACC to BEY | 0.43 | 3 | EgyptAir, Middle East Airlines |
| BEY to ACC | 0.43 | 3 | EgyptAir, Middle East Airlines |
Two carriers hold the sector, EgyptAir and Middle East Airlines, which gives a missed departure somewhere to go without leaving the nonstop.
Between them the two directions put about 6 departures a week on ACC to BEY, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 6h 19m block time on ACC to BEY. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to ACC | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At ACC before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| ACC to BEY in the air, estimated | 379 min | 10h 49m |
| Formalities at BEY | 90 min | 12h 19m |
| Delivery run in Beirut | 45 min | 13h 04m |
| Door to door | 784 min | 13h 04m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for ACC to BEY is 13h 04m.
A courier who leaves Accra at 09:00 local is on the ground in Beirut at about 17:19 local and at the door by 19:34 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Beirut, the last useful departure from Accra is around 07:26 local.
At 13h 04m the mission uses most of a sixteen hour duty day, which leaves no room for a delay before a rest at the far end becomes the honest answer.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 10 of them join ACC to BEY.
| Connecting at | ACC to hub, flights a day | Hub to BEY, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cairo CAI | 0.57 | 6.57 | 4,846 | 8h 15m |
| Istanbul IST | 1.43 | 7.43 | 5,914 | 9h 42m |
| Rome FCO | 0.57 | 1 | 6,426 | 10h 24m |
| Addis Ababa ADD | 2.43 | 2 | 7,095 | 11h 00m |
| Brussels BRU | 0.86 | 0.86 | 8,194 | 12h 07m |
| Amsterdam AMS | 1.14 | 0.57 | 8,405 | 12h 38m |
10 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Cairo CAI, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 4 times a week.
Through CAI the routing covers 4,846 km against the 4,830 km nonstop track and takes about 8h 15m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 75 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 56m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Istanbul IST at 9h 42m and Rome FCO at 10h 24m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Beirut, Larnaca LCA is 207 km away by great circle and carries 86 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for ACC to BEY in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
