This agreement paves the way towards the creation of a national domestic carrier, as Sonatrach exits the aviation sector.

Air Algérie said: “The agreement outlines precise regulatory mechanisms to ensure a smooth transfer process, fully compliant with regulatory requirements, guaranteeing seamless ownership transition and operational continuity.

“This deal reflects the mutual commitment of both parties to principles of governance, operational synergy, and strategic complementarity in the air transport sector.”
