We recommend at least 1 hour for a comfortable connection at Carthage. The minimum connection time is 45 minutes for domestic flights and 75 minutes for international flights. Transit between terminals takes up to 12 minutes.

Domestic-to-Domestic: 45 min. Domestic-to-International: 60 min. International-to-Domestic: 60 min. International-to-International: 75 min. These are the shortest layovers airlines will sell at Carthage.

Carthage International is a compact single-terminal airport that handles Tunisair's home operations plus seasonal charter and European leisure traffic. Connections are straightforward given the small footprint, but processes can be slow and unpredictable due to manual passport checks and limited automation. All flights operate from the single main terminal, so there is no inter-terminal transfer by bus or train. Passengers connecting between international flights walk from arrivals gates to the departure gate area, though transiting passengers arriving from outside Tunisia must clear immigration and often collect and recheck bags since through-checking is inconsistent, then pass security again before the gate.

Manual passport checks alone can consume most of this window, leaving no margin for delays. See full 30 min guide →
