The national company recorded an increase of 4% of its transport revenues in the first half of 2025. A result contrasting by the decline in the number of passengers and the flight hours operated on their own.
Income up despite traffic in decline
The activity indicators of Tunisairpublished Tuesday, July 29 on the Tunis Stock Exchange website, show that the company generated 728 million income dinars from transport during the 1st half of 2025, an increase of 4% compared to the same period of 2024.
In parallel, the filling rate won 3.6 points, reaching 74.8% at the end of June 2025, against 71.2% a year earlier. The loading coefficient also increased from 1.5 points to 63.6%.
Contrasting signals in operations
Despite this improvement in performance indicators, the number of passengers transported decreased by 1.5%, falling to 1,155,997 travelers.
Another worrying point: the company has decreased its flight hours operated by its own fleet, evoking operational instability, partially offset by an increase in rented flights, which resulted in a 68% increase in aircraft rents.
Reduction in fuel costs and decrease
In an always constrained economic context, Tunisair was able to benefit from a reduction in fuel expenses of 23.7%, due to a lower volume of consumption, a drop in the price of a barrel and a favorable effect of the exchange rate.
On the human resources side, the company notes an 11% reduction in its workforce, following legal retirements. Leasing royalties also fell 7% after the closing of two lines of credit.
