Cheap Flights From Central Europe To North Africa

Hi!

I was wondering if there is any chance of cheap flights to Northern Africa (Algeria, Morrocco, Tunisia or Libya) from Central Europe coming up any time soon. I am looking at visiting a good friend of mine who has moved to Tunisia and the prices are insane! At least the flights. If I would want to stay on a vacation incl. hotel and flight it would be cheaper...
And getting there by ferry, which would be great, too, also costs an arm and a leg.
So I was wondering if anybody knows of any plans of airlines expanding in that market and thus driving fares down a bit.

Thanks a lot!

I am aware of them, but they are still pretty pricey for a two hour flight.
 Big grin

The cheapest fares I could find were with TUI Belgium. Something at €180r/t. But a four day holiday with hotel was €150.

I guess I am just asking too much.  Smile

Exactly the problem. You could get a far cheaper flight as part of a full holiday package to that part of the world.


Just when I thought I could see light at the end of the tunnel, it was some B*****d with a torch bringing me more work

True.

It is actually cheaper to fly to MIR with a hotel package, then take the train to TUN and back. And by cheaper, I mean over 50%. A regular flight to TUN can't be found under €330!

How about Tunis Air from BRU or DUS to TUN.

Fare would be 252 Euro, include Tax

Check www.mcflight.de>

Hi,


It is definitely expensive to fly to TUN, but you can find some nice deals from FRA or CDG.

At the end of the month, I fly to TUN from LUX and it will cost me EUR 300.

The carrier is AF and via CDG. I have already flown between CDG and TUN and the service was litteraly outstanding for a 2h30 flight!!

From what I have heard, fares with TU are as bad as the service.

With LH and AZ, you can find a ticket around 300 and the minimum I have found is 260 from CDG but still with AF.



Good luck

Nico

Ushermittwoch,
check-out this page: http://www.ltur.com/com/index.html. Really good deals on lastminute scheduled and charter flights. I.e. 10 days Nürnberg-Monastir flight-only with HapagLloyd for 139,- EUR incl. taxes. Other German airports available for departure as well. Not bad I guess.

L410, that's where I got the €150 quote for a four day holiday from.  Smile

I guess I will have to go for a last minute offer, since I doubt that I will be wanting to pay upwards of €200 at the moment.
But flying with TunisAir (and especially a 737-600) would be a real treat.

When do you plan to fly down there?
Searching through Czech last minute servers I found number of last-minute deals for **** hotel hb at around 150 EUR from PRG (usually with 8F or QS), but they were usually only 8 days. BTW, how do you make any money out of such bargain???
I've been regularly browsing ltur and they seem to have always a very reasonable prices and decent selection. No practical experience yet, though.

Well they don't but a lot of times they have contracts with hotels and they have to pay regradless if people stay in the rooms or not. This way they keep the loss minimal.
I was looking at September or so.
