Nigeria, Tunisia To Begin Direct Flight In 2026

The Ambassador of Tunisia to Nigeria, Mohsen Antit, has announced that direct flights between Tunisia and Nigeria are expected to commence in 2026.

This initiative is part of broader efforts to enhance bilateral relations between the two countries.

In an interview on Wednesday in Abuja, Antit emphasized that direct flights are essential for fostering closer business, political, and cultural connections.

Currently, flights between Nigeria and Tunisia are primarily operated by non-African airlines. The only recent African airline to offer a direct route is Morocco’s Royal Air Maroc, which launched flights between Abuja and Casablanca in June 2024.
