Despite recent setbacks, North African carrier Tunisair remains cautiously optimistic about fleet expansion and passenger growth, as a near double-digit improvement in passenger numbers last year and a new government restructuring plan set for implementation in 2019 have improved its operating outlook. “The market is recovering and further progress is expected in the coming years. We estimate that in 2019, we will reach a target of 4 million passengers,” Tunisair CEO Ilyes Mnakbi told AIN.
