AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
Because baggage transfer between international flights is not always automatic, confirm with your airline whether you need to reclaim and recheck bags.
Immigration lines can be slow and largely manual, so build in extra time even for short layovers.
There are very few dining or lounge options, so grab food before security if you have a long wait.
Signage and announcements can be inconsistent, so ask staff directly if you're unsure which gate to go to.
If connecting on separate Tunisair tickets, reconfirm your onward flight status at the transfer desk since irregular operations are common.

Low risk
Moderate
High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
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.
