Fleet
Nouvelair (IATA: BJ, ICAO: LBT) is Tunisia's established carrier, founded in 1989 and based in North Africa. The airline operates from three strategic hubs: Tunis-Carthage International Airport (the nation's primary gateway), Monastir Habib Bourguiba International Airport, and Djerba–Zarzis International Airport, positioning it to serve both leisure and business routes across the Mediterranean and North African corridor.
The airline's network connects Tunisia with European destinations and regional points, supporting both tourism and business travel. Its three-hub structure allows Nouvelair to distribute operations efficiently, with Tunis-Carthage serving as the primary hub for international connections and Monastir and Djerba handling significant leisure traffic, particularly during peak seasons.
Nouvelair operates an all-Airbus A320 fleet, a modern, single-aisle aircraft family optimized for short to medium-haul routes typical of Mediterranean and North African networks. This standardized fleet simplifies operations, crew training, and maintenance, while the A320's efficiency supports competitive pricing on leisure routes between Tunisia and Europe.
