Tunis–Carthage International Airport

Tunis–Carthage International Airport is about 8 km northeast of downtown Tunis. The drive to Avenue Habib Bourguiba usually takes 15 to 25 minutes outside rush hours, and 35 to 45 minutes at peak times, roughly 7:00 to 9:00 and 17:00 to 19:00. Carthage is about 16 km away by road, usually around 25 minutes.

Tunis–Carthage International Airport has two passenger terminals. Terminal 1 is the main building and handles scheduled flights, with departures and arrivals on separate floors. Terminal 2 opened in 2006 for charter flights and is still used mainly for them. A shuttle bus links the two terminals, so check your ticket or booking to see which one your flight uses.

Tunisair is the main airline at Tunis–Carthage and uses it as its hub, with Tunisair Express flying domestic and short regional routes such as Djerba and Tozeur. Nouvelair and Transavia fly to many cities in France and Europe. Other airlines include Air France, Lufthansa, Eurowings, ITA Airways, Aegean Airlines, Turkish Airlines, EgyptAir, Royal Air Maroc, Royal Jordanian, Emirates and Qatar Airways.

Yellow metered taxis wait at the taxi rank outside the arrivals hall. Ask the driver to switch on the meter before you leave, and turn down offers from unofficial drivers inside the terminal. Fares go up at night and luggage is charged extra. The ride to downtown Tunis takes about 20 minutes outside rush hours.

Yes. Public city buses leave from outside the arrivals hall for central Tunis and run fairly regularly during the day, though not at night. They are much cheaper than a taxi but slower, and they are not easy with large suitcases. Ask at the information desk in the arrivals hall for the current route number.

Not directly. Tunis–Carthage airport has no rail station. The TGM suburban train runs from Tunis Marine station, near the end of Avenue Habib Bourguiba, to La Goulette, Carthage, Sidi Bou Said and La Marsa. To use it, first reach Tunis Marine by bus or taxi from the airport, then change to the train.

Yes. Currency exchange counters and ATMs are in the arrivals and departures areas. The Tunisian dinar (TND) is a closed currency that cannot be bought or exchanged outside Tunisia, so the airport is the usual place to get local cash on arrival. Some ATMs do not accept every international card, so it is worth carrying a backup card or some euros.

It depends on your nationality. Citizens of many countries can enter Tunisia without a visa for a short stay, usually up to three months, while others must get a visa from a Tunisian embassy or consulate before they travel. Tunisia has no e-visa system, so a visa cannot be arranged online. Check the current rules for your passport before you fly.

Tunis is on Central European Time, UTC+1, all year, and Tunisia does not use daylight saving time. That means Tunis is on the same clock as Paris and Rome in winter but one hour behind them in summer. The currency is the Tunisian dinar (TND).

Sidi Bou Said, La Marsa and Gammarth are on the coast northeast of Tunis, beyond Carthage, which is about 16 km from the airport by road. The simplest way there with luggage is a taxi or a pre-booked transfer. Without bags, you can travel into the city and take the TGM train from Tunis Marine to Sidi Bou Said or La Marsa.

Hammamet is about 70 km from Tunis–Carthage International Airport, on the coast of Nabeul Governorate to the southeast. Travelers usually reach it by taxi, rental car or pre-booked transfer along the motorway. Hammamet has no airport of its own; Enfidha–Hammamet International Airport (NBE) is a separate airport further south, so check which one your flight uses.

No. Tunis–Carthage International Airport (TUN) serves Tunis and the capital region. Enfidha–Hammamet International Airport (NBE) is a different airport south of Hammamet, toward Sousse, with its own flights. Some holiday and charter tickets to the Hammamet area use NBE, so check that your ticket shows the code TUN before you plan your trip from the airport.

Tunis–Carthage International Airport is operated by the Tunisian Civil Aviation and Airports Authority (OACA), which has its head office on the airport grounds. The airport handled 7,249,701 passengers in 2024, up 8.8 percent on 2023. It has two asphalt runways, 3,200 m and 2,840 m long, and is the hub of Tunisair.

Yes. The main parking area is directly outside Terminal 1, with about 2,500 spaces, and a smaller parking area outside Terminal 2 holds about 500 vehicles. Both are a short walk from the terminal doors. Rental car desks for Avis, Budget, Hertz and Sixt are in the arrivals hall if you plan to drive yourself.
