ALGIERS- Air Algérie is gearing up for the upcoming summer season with a dedicated offer aimed at attracting a large number of passengers, particularly families.
In a statement released yesterday, the national airline announced the launch of a special offer named “Osra,” tailored specifically for families in preparation for the next summer season.
The “Osra” offer provides discounted rates exclusively for group bookings made by families. Air Algérie has made efforts to offer attractive prices to maximize family bookings for its flights. Prices for the Osra offer start from €168 for round-trip flights from abroad to Algeria. For flights departing from Algeria, Osra tickets are available starting from 22,500 Algerian dinars (DA) for round-trip tickets.
Air Algérie clarified that Osra tickets are valid for flights between June 1st and September 30th. However, it’s advisable to book early as the offer is “subject to seat availability,” according to the airline’s statement.
“Purchases can be made at Air Algérie agencies and intermediary agencies,” Air Algérie stated, providing some examples of Osra ticket prices. For instance, a round-trip ticket from Marseille to Algiers starts from €199, while Algiers to Marseille is available starting from 22,500 DA.
Competitive Rates
For a round-trip flight to Dubai from Algiers, prices start from 55,500 DA, while the return trip from Dubai to Algeria is priced from €550. The large Algerian community in Montreal can travel to Algeria starting from €650 for a round-trip ticket, with tickets from Algeria to Montreal available from 73,900 DA under the same offer.
The launch of the Osra tariff follows the announcement made by Air Algérie CEO, Hamza Benhamouda, during his appearance before the National People’s Assembly’s transport committee, regarding a commission tasked with reviewing ticket prices downward. This responsibility has been delegated to the revenue management department, which studies the market and determines the pricing structure of flight tickets.
Air Algérie has delivered on its promise, offering very competitive rates for travel during the peak summer season, when high demand typically leads to soaring ticket prices.
Tough Competition
Every year, Algerians living abroad flock to Algeria in large numbers to spend their holidays in their home country. Many Algerians also enjoy trips abroad during the summer.
Air Algérie’s offer comes at the perfect time for families planning summer vacations. Last week, Tassili Airlines also launched attractive rates between Algeria and France for the summer season, announcing its summer program with flights to Paris Charles-de-Gaulle, Strasbourg, and Nantes from Algiers, Oran, and Constantine.
Both national airlines will face tough competition from French airlines, especially low-cost carriers, but these offers are sure to attract many travelers looking for affordable summer travel options.
