Find quick answers to the most common questions about flying with Tunisair Express.
When does Tunisair Express counter check-in close?
It closes 60 minutes before international departures and 45 minutes before domestic departures. These are counter deadlines, not recommended airport-arrival times.
What checked-baggage weights does Tunisair Express publish?
The published allowance is 15 kg per person domestically and 20 kg internationally. Excess costs extra; no individual bag may exceed 32 kg.
Can I carry liquid medicine and baby food on Tunisair Express?
Necessary baby food and liquid medication with a prescription or certificate are exceptions. Ordinary liquids must be in containers of at most 100 ml, in one transparent closed bag per person.
Is baggage automatically through-checked when arriving internationally in Tunisia and connecting domestically on Tunisair Express?
Clear baggage through customs at the first arrival in Tunisia, then recheck it at the Tunisair Express counter for the domestic continuation.
What should I retain after reporting missing or damaged Tunisair Express baggage?
Report it before leaving arrivals and obtain a tracking number and contacts. Keep the PIR, baggage tag, boarding pass, any applicable BCB and damaged suitcase.
What paperwork and handover are required for Tunisair Express unaccompanied-child service?
Obtain prior airline approval. A parent or guardian completes a journey form identifying relatives, contacts and the designated collector. The collector must show ID and sign on arrival. Confirm age eligibility separately.
What must I prepare for a pet on Tunisair Express, and is carriage free?
Bring your own cage and the animal’s vaccination record. Pet carriage is charged as excess baggage. Confirm weight eligibility and acceptance conditions beforehand.
Should I notify Tunisair Express in advance about arrival mobility assistance?
Yes. Pre-notified needs are passed to staff at Tunisian and EU airports; elsewhere the airline arranges suitable assistance. Personal mobility equipment receives unloading priority.
Do changes always cost extra for Tunisair Express office or call-centre bookings?
Changes before ticket issuance are free. After issuance, fees may apply. Contact the call centre and follow instructions to pay at a sales office and validate the change.
Does a Tunisair Express reservation code mean I can pay whenever I want?
No. Observe the ticket-purchase deadline supplied by the booking agent to avoid automatic cancellation. Provide the reservation reference when purchasing the ticket and checking in.
