The Tunisian Federation of Travel Agencies (FTAV) announced, this Monday, the launch of a new air link between Iceland and Tunisia, starting May 21, 2027.
According to the Federation’s press release, one flight will be operated every ten days between the Icelandic capital Reykjavik and Enfidha-Hammamet International Airport, as part of a new initiative aimed at strengthening air connectivity between the two countries.
This project is led by a Tunisian industry professional, a member of FTAV, in partnership with an Icelandic tour operator. This initiative should open up new prospects for the Tunisian destination to attract clientele from Nordic countries. It also testifies to the dynamism of Tunisian travel agencies and their ability to diversify tourist markets and to conquer new categories of clients.
This new link should generate several positive spillovers for the Tunisian tourism sector, notably by attracting new visitors from Nordic countries to Hammamet, Sousse and the surrounding regions. It will also help strengthen tourist activity during the periods before and after the peak season, while offering new opportunities to receptive travel agencies and various players in the sector.
In its press release, FTAV reaffirmed its support for all initiatives likely to strengthen the attractiveness of the Tunisian destination and to improve the competitiveness of Tunisian travel agencies on the international stage.
