Tunisian Navigation Company Announces Changes to Maritime Crossing Schedule
The Tunisian Navigation Company (CTN) has announced modifications to its maritime crossing schedule for mid-April 2026, citing the rise in fuel prices due to tensions in the Middle East.
Changes to Limit Tariff Impact
To limit the impact on ticket prices, the company has decided to merge several separate trips. The Tunis-Marseille crossings from April 14 to 16 and Tunis-Genoa from April 17 to 19 will be combined into a single combined crossing, operated from April 17 to 20.
New Combined Route
The new route will be as follows:
- Departure from Tunis on Friday, April 17 at 12:00
- Arrival in Genoa on Saturday, April 18 at 14:00
- Departure from Genoa at 19:00 towards Marseille
- Arrival in Marseille on Sunday, April 19 at 07:00
- Departure from Marseille at 12:00 on the same day
- Return to Tunis on Monday, April 20 at 12:00
Reflection of Energy Price Fluctuations
This reorganization reflects the growing constraints imposed by energy price fluctuations on Mediterranean maritime transport. The CTN's decision aims to mitigate the effects of rising fuel costs while maintaining its services.
