Spanish airline Air Europa will resume flights to Tunisia starting from June, as European governments are relaxing their advice on visiting the country, Lonelyplanet reported.
The Air Europa service between the capital cities of Madrid and Tunis will be reinstated and is planned to operate four times a week.
Also in time for summer, TUI Fly is connecting Antwerp, Belgium, to the Tunisian resort town of Hammamet twice weekly.
TUI Fly is the only airline operating this route and said it was launched ‘to meet the growing interest of Belgian holidaymakers’, according to local media.
Other routes from Belgium fly from Brussels, Charleroi, Liège and Ostend and connect with Tunis and the island of Djerba.
The airlines are responding to demand – Tunisia has seen a surge in interest from travellers who are eager to visit.
Following a security overhaul, the UK’s Foreign and Commonwealth Office relaxed its advice on visiting Tunisia in July 2017 and again in June 2018. Tour operators such as Intrepid have started adding Tunisia itineraries back on their schedules, according to the same source.
