TS-IEF | Syphax Airlines | Airbus A319

This Tunisian airline operated two A319s and one A330-200 on routes from/to tourist destinations in Tunisia. However, with the political situation more and more deteriorating from 2011 on, the environment was always hostile. In 2014, TS-IEF was leased out to Air Algérie and thus seen operating a flight from Algeria to Paris Orly on 21 August 2014.
