Cheap Flights from Düsseldorf to Monastir

Düsseldorf to Monastir is one of the busiest holiday routes between Germany and Tunisia. Aircraft leaving North Rhine-Westphalia's largest airport land at Monastir Habib Bourguiba Airport about three hours later, a few kilometres from Monastir, under half an hour from Sousse and a short transfer from the resorts of Port El Kantaoui. The route is used by holidaymakers heading for the Sahel coast and by Tunisians living in Germany alike.

Tunisia's private carrier Nouvelair is the main operator, and Tunisair also flies non-stop from Düsseldorf to Monastir in the summer schedule. Frequencies rise from April to October and thin out in winter; on dates without a non-stop flight, Tunisair's connections via Tunis and, for the Hammamet side, Enfidha Airport are the alternatives.

The cheapest Düsseldorf–Monastir fares usually come up between November and March and on midweek dates, while the North Rhine-Westphalia school holidays, the summer season and the Eid weeks call for early booking. Comparing Nouvelair with Tunisair for the same date, pricing outbound and return separately and trying nearby Cologne/Bonn as well often makes a difference. The prices on this page are the current lowest Düsseldorf–Monastir fares found by our searches.

The non-stop flight takes around three hours and is mostly operated with Nouvelair's Airbus A320-family aircraft. The summer schedule has flights on several days a week; in winter they are fewer and concentrated on certain weekdays, and the current departure days appear in the price list on this page.

• Departure: Düsseldorf Airport (DUS), a quarter of an hour from the city centre by S-Bahn; international flights mostly leave from Terminals B and C, so check the terminal on your ticket.
• Arrival: Monastir Habib Bourguiba Airport (MIR); taxis and hotel transfers wait outside arrivals, and Sousse is about half an hour away.
• Connecting option: Tunisair flights via Tunis (TUN) are the alternative, especially in winter.

• Most EU passport holders enter Tunisia visa-free for tourist stays; check your passport's validity before you travel.
• The Tunisian dinar cannot be taken out of the country: exchange only what you need and change leftover dinars back at the airport before departure.
• Monastir is the closer airport for Sousse and Port El Kantaoui, Enfidha for Hammamet; plan your hotel transfer around the airport you use.
• In summer the departure days of weekly holiday packages (mostly weekends) are the most expensive; flying midweek lowers the fare.
• Baggage allowances on Nouvelair and Tunisair depend on the fare; what your chosen fare includes is shown during booking.
