TUN Tunis

How deep the TUN board really is

The table above says where a courier can fly from TUN. This reads the same 61 destinations back for the questions a dispatcher asks second: how much of the board rests on one airline, how much of it runs less than daily, whether the return leg is as thick as the outbound, what the clock here does to a Gulf working day and which of the destinations shut at night, all of it computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics.

• 33of the 61 destinations are flown by one airline
• 30destinations run less than once a day
• 6destinations have four or more departures a day
• 57.4%of the destinations name Tunisair, the largest presence here

Who holds the departures at TUN

24 airlines appear on the TUN board and they do not hold it evenly. Tunisair is on 35 of the 61 destinations, 57.4 per cent of them, and on 10 of those it is the only airline flying the sector. The destinations it appears on carry 67.2 of the 96.4 departures a day this airport files, though other airlines fly some of the same sectors, so read that as reach rather than as a share of the aircraft.

The next largest presence is Nouvelair Tunisie on 26 destinations. 15 of the 24 airlines at TUN appear on a single destination each, which is the long tail every airport carries, and none of it is a rebooking option when the sector you need is the one that fell over.

An airport held this tightly is quick to book and slow to recover: with 35 of the 61 destinations on one airline, the second aircraft on a TUN sector is usually another Tunisair aircraft, and when there is not one the desk is looking at another airport rather than another airline. That is why the alternate airports listed above matter more at TUN than the destination count does.

How much of the TUN board is daily

Of the 61 destinations, 31 are flown at least once a day and 30 are not, 5 of them running once a week or less. The median destination on the TUN board is flown about once a day.

An average of 0.14 flights a day is the schedule statistic, and it is worth translating it before anything is promised to anybody: TUN to Senou (BKO) is about one a week, so a missed departure there is not a delay of hours, it is the next slot.

The five busiest destinations carry 29 of the 96.4 departures a day, 30.1 per cent of the whole board. The other 56 destinations are spread widely enough that a courier who misses the first departure at TUN usually has somewhere else to look on the same board.

The ten destinations out of TUN where one airline holds the sector and files fewer than seven departures a week, with the weekly figure taken as the average daily rate multiplied by seven rather than as a fixed timetable. 18 further destinations sit in the same position and are listed in the board above.

The way back from TUN

The desk holds the return direction for 53 of the 61 destinations, and a courier plans the way back on those figures rather than on the outbound. On four of them the return into TUN runs thinner than the outbound by more than a quarter. The widest gaps are Conakry (CKY) at 0.43 out a day against 0.14 back, Ouagadougou (OUA) at 0.29 out a day against 0.14 back and Nouakchott (NKC) at 1.1 out a day against 0.73 back.

It runs the other way as well: Istanbul (IST) files 4.6 a day back into TUN against 3.2 outbound, which is the shape that strands a courier at this end rather than at the far end.

The clock at TUN

TUN keeps Africa/Tunis time, three hours behind Dubai all year.

When it is 09:00 on a Dubai working morning it is 06:00 at TUN, so a nine to six day at each end overlaps for six hours. A customs question raised in the last three hours of the Dubai afternoon reaches nobody at TUN until the next morning, which is the practical limit on a same day instruction here.

The night at TUN

12 of the destinations from here carry a documented night restriction of their own, which is a departure time question at this end rather than an arrival problem at the other.

Into Paris (CDG) the door shuts at 00:00 local, so the last departure from TUN that lands inside it leaves around 20:36, on a modelled block of 2h 24m. Into Paris (ORY) the door shuts at 23:30 local, so the last departure from TUN that lands inside it leaves around 20:08, on a modelled block of 2h 22m. Into Frankfurt-am-Main (FRA) the door shuts at 23:00 local, so the last departure from TUN that lands inside it leaves around 19:37, on a modelled block of 2h 23m. Those three departure times out of TUN are worked backwards from the published window with the block time model this site uses everywhere, 720 to 880 km an hour by sector length with thirty minutes on the ground, so they are arithmetic rather than a timetable and the desk checks the published departure before it promises the landing.

Where TUN turns up on the rest of this site

The airport also sits behind the Tunisia country desk, which sets out the customs practice, the working week and the road legs behind this airport.

The site publishes 10 airport pair pages that start or end at TUN, each with the distance, the block time, the carriers on the sector and a door to door clock. The busiest are Tunis to Paris (ORY), Tunis to Lyon (LYS) and Tunis to Marseille (MRS).

One courier posting names TUN as the airport a courier here flies from: Tunis.

To price a movement rather than read the board, the route calculator opens with TUN already set as the origin, and it works out the flying time, the distance and the delivery hour for any of the 61 destinations above.
