Cedar Routes' Founders and Board of Directors

Cedar Routes was established in Beirut in September 2017 by 15 enterprising professionals from all sectors of the global aviation & aerospace industry, representing many of the leading organizations within the industry, and having roots from virtually every part of their Lebanese homeland.  These individuals now serve on the inaugural board of directors for the Cedar Routes organization.
