The airline "Tunisian Airlines" (Nouvelair)

"Tunisian Airlines" (Nouvelair) - a company that has been working in the sphere of charter transport for more than 20 years. It is the largest charter carrier in Tunisia and North-West Africa.

Information about the airline

"Tunisian Airlines" is an African carrier, whose activity is the organization of charter flights from major European cities to the popular resort destinations of Tunisia. Despite the narrow specialization of the company, the air carrier was able to become the second largest passenger traffic in the country. The airline is famous for its high level of service and safety.

The company was founded in 1989 as a subsidiary of the French company AirLiberte. Initially, there were only two units of MD-83 type aircraft in the aircraft park, and the geography of flights was limited to several international flights. The active phase of development came in 1995 after the purchase of a part of the shares of "Travel Group". After 4 years, Tunisian Airlines was able to purchase its own airliner, Airbus A-320. By 2000, the company had transported more than 1,000,000 people. Gradually, the old MD-83 was replaced with Airbus, and the enterprise began to function as an independent organization.

Now Nouvelair is betting on the high level of safety of air travel and the technical condition of aircraft. Aircraft cleaning is also given special attention. For its efforts, the company was repeatedly awarded certificates of many well-known organizations in the field of civil aviation.

There are more than 10 Airbus A-320 and A-321 airplanes in the fleet, designed for transportation of 180 and 215 people respectively. Moreover, their average age is about 12 years.

The volume of passenger traffic during the year is about one and a half million people. Major air transport hubs of the country - Tunis, Djerba, Monastir - are home airports.
