Nouvelle Air

[vctenderness]

My daughter is off on her annual fly with an airline no one else has heard off trip.

Anyone know anything about Nouvelle Air? I know it is Tunisian and privately owned but that about it.

They are operating charters out of LGW for Thomas Cook or Thompsons I think.

It's Nouvelair Tunisie.

They appear to have a modern fleet:
Fleet Nouvelair :airline company in Tunisia (http://www.nouvelair.com/en/content/fleet)
and a credible website:
NouvelAir | Airlines of Tunisia - Tunisia Cheap Europe (http://www.nouvelair.com/en)

Any airline which is allowed to operate to/from the EU meets certain standards. Whether I would fly on them or entrust a loved one to them is another matter.

Flew with them from Tunisia to Doncaster with Thomas Cook last year. They are a good airline and seemed very professional.

They operated into and out of BFS fr a few years before I left (2013) . As a controller I had absolutely no difficulties with them . They were exactly as I would expect. Professional and efficient.

They've operated for years and I have sold them for years too. Never had any issues with them

Capetonian........why?

Thanks for replies. She is off today and it looks like its going to be an on time departure ex LGW so a good start.

Because, rightly or wrongly, I have an inherent distrust of any airline, and indeed many other things, on the African continent north of the Limpopo.

This is not intended to kick off a discussion or accusations of 'racism', it's just my answer to your question.
