Nouvelair to restart Manchester-Tunis flights

Tunisian carrier Nouvelair is re-launch regular flights from Manchester airport next summer.

The service had been planned to start in July but had to be suspended due to restrictions imposed by the UK government.

The relaxation of travel curbs has allowed the privately-owned Tunisian airline to resume the Manchester link in time for the 2022 Easter holidays.

Two Airbus A320 flights will run a week from March 29 as the only airline to serve Tunis from Manchester.

Airport managing director Karen Smart said: “The return of Nouvelair to Manchester is terrific news for the 100,000 or so passengers in our catchment who travel to Tunisia each year and will increase choice available to those seeking some sunshine over Easter.”

Carl Denton, UK sales agent for Nouvelair, added: “After being restricted to a limited programme in 2021, we are very excited to restart operations again for 2022, with an expanded operation which will provide great access for holidays, business and most importantly to allow friends and families to reconnect with Tunisia again.”
