Air Algerie plans expansion with new aircraft and routes as Algeria boosts tourism

Air Algerie is modernizing and expanding as Algeria opens up to tourism. The airline, which has struggled financially, plans to acquire 25 new aircraft and increase its route network, particularly in Africa and Europe. Currently, Air Algerie operates a fleet of 55 aircraft, including Boeing 737s and Airbus A330s. The airline's domestic flights make up a significant portion of its operations, with a strong focus on routes to France, which accounts for over 60% of its international flights. The Algerian government aims to boost tourism from 3.3 million visitors last year to 12 million by 2030. Air Algerie is positioning itself to benefit from this growth, enhancing its competitive pricing and expanding its services to meet rising demand.
