About Tunisair
Tunisair (ICAO: TAR) is the national flag carrier airline of Tunisia, playing a significant role in connecting the North African nation with destinations across four continents.
Tunisair was established in late 1948 as Société Tunisienne de l'Air, commencing its operations on April 1, 1949. The airline's initial funding was a partnership with the Tunisian government and Air France each holding a 35% stake, alongside other private interests. Air France facilitated the airline's start by providing initial aircraft, such as DC-3s, and several routes, including those to Algiers, Nice, Rome, and Marseille. The Tunisian government assumed primary ownership of the airline in 1957.
The airline's main operational base and hub is Tunis–Carthage International Airport (TUN). Tunisair operates scheduled international services across Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America, serving over 40 destinations in approximately 24 countries. The airline also manages a subsidiary, Tunisair Express, which handles domestic and shorter-distance international flights.
Tunisair's current fleet primarily consists of Airbus aircraft, including Airbus A320neo, Airbus A320-200, Airbus A319-100, and Airbus A330-200 models. While the fleet size is around 30 aircraft, the average age varies, with newer A320neos being around one year old and some A319s averaging 22 years. Tunisair offers both Business Class and Economy Class cabin services. On its A320neo aircraft, passengers can enjoy a Wi-Fi Streaming entertainment system accessible via personal devices, along with power outlets and USB ports. Meals and beverages are typically served in Economy class, even on shorter flights. Tunisair is not a member of any major global airline alliances like Star Alliance, SkyTeam, or Oneworld.
