Air Algérie (AH)

Delivered on 12 November 2025, the A330neo marks the launch of an extensive fleet renewal programme that includes the integration of 8 A330-900neo aircraft by 2026. With this acquisition, Air Algérie becomes the first African operator of this model and is positioning itself to expand its transatlantic and Asian routes. Featuring the Airspace cabin, the aircraft offers a high level of comfort through a three-class configuration, full-flat Business seats, a Premium Economy section and an optimised Economy cabin, all complemented by the latest entertainment and connectivity technologies. More environmentally friendly, the A330neo can operate using a fuel blend containing up to 50% sustainable aviation fuel and aims to be fully compatible with SAF by 2030. This modernisation is part of the airline’s 2025–2027 strategy, which also includes the arrival of new ATR 72 and Boeing 737 MAX 9 aircraft to strengthen both its domestic and medium-haul networks. With this first A330neo, the airline is reaffirming its ambition to offer a modernised travel experience that is more sustainable for its passengers.

The airline Air Algérie is strengthening its international presence through a codeshare agreement with Qatar Airways, giving Algerian travellers access to key destinations in Asia and the Middle East. Since the partnership was launched, passengers have been able to book flights to cities such as Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur and Muscat via Qatar Airways’ network. At the same time, Qatar Airways benefits from privileged access to several cities served by Air Algérie, including Constantine, Oran, Annaba, Tamanrasset, Tindouf and Timimoun. Algiers International Airport serves as the central hub for these routes, ensuring smooth connections between international and domestic flights. Air tickets to these new destinations have been available since 3 November 2025, and the first codeshare flights began in mid-November. Air Algérie highlights that this partnership with Qatar Airways opens up new opportunities for passengers wishing to travel between Algeria, the Middle East and Asia, while facilitating access to Algeria from these regions. For Qatar Airways, the collaboration helps strengthen its presence in the African market and offer travellers smoother connections to its destinations in the Middle East and Asia. This initiative illustrates Air Algérie’s strategy of modernising its network and expanding its international connectivity, while providing passengers with greater comfort and flexibility. The codeshare with Qatar Airways therefore represents an important step towards enhancing Algeria’s appeal across major international hubs and facilitating connections for travellers arriving from or heading to the country.
