Enfidha-Hammamet International Airport, on Monday, welcomed 3,248 tourists from various countries on Monday on 19 flights from several European cities and capitals, local tourism delegate in Sousse, Taoufik Gaied, told TAP on Tuesday.
The large number of trips through Enfidha-Hammamet airport
reflects a significant improvement in the region's tourism indicators over the
last period, a trend that has had a positive impact on the Sousse El-Kantaoui
