Libyan Airlines announced on Tuesday that it will resume its round-trip flights between Tripoli and Sfax via Mitiga Airport starting April 28th. Saber El-Tayr, the airline’s media office director, stated in a press release that the flights will operate once a week every Sunday.
The resumption of this route is a significant step towards increasing connectivity and fostering economic ties between Libya and Tunisia. The service aims to cater to the growing demand for travel between the two cities, supporting both business and leisure travelers.
This move is part of Libyan Airlines’ broader strategy to expand its network and enhance its services amidst the evolving travel landscape. By restoring this important air link, the airline demonstrates its commitment to improving regional transportation and boosting tourism and commerce between neighboring North African countries.
This development is expected to be well-received by passengers looking for direct and efficient travel options in the region.
On Monday, the Leaders of Libya, Algeria, and Tunisia underscored the importance of unifying positions, consultation, and coordination to strengthen security in the region.
This came in a joint statement issued after the consultative meeting, which was attended by the Head of the Libyan Presidential Council, Mohamed al-Mnifi, Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, and Tunisian President Kais Saied.
The statement reaffirmed the commitment of the three North African countries to national sovereignty and non-interference in internal affairs.
The leaders also firmly rejected foreign interventions in Libyan affairs and pledged support for efforts leading to elections.
The statement emphasised the pivotal role of Libya’s neighbouring countries in supporting authorities’ reconstruction and stability efforts.
Furthermore, they condemned the violations, crimes, and genocide committed against the people of Gaza, renewing the urgent call for an immediate cessation of Israeli aggression.
Last month, Tebboune disclosed an agreement with leaders of four countries in the region, including the Head of the Libyan Presidential Council, Mohamed al-Mnifi, to establish a joint Maghreb coalition.
