Air Algérie SpA[4] (Arabic: الخطوط الجوية الجزائرية, al-Khuṭūṭu l-Jawwiyyatu l-Jazāā’iriyyah) is the flag carrier of Algeria,[5] with its head office in the Immeuble El-Djazair in Algiers.[6][7] With flights operating from Houari Boumedienne Airport, Air Algérie operates scheduled international services to 39 destinations in 28 countries in Europe, North America, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, as well as domestic services to 32 airports. As of December 2013, Air Algérie was 100% owned by the Government of Algeria.

Air Algérie is in the process of aligning its codeshare agreements, frequent flyer programs, and airport lounge agreements with each of the SkyTeam carriers in order to meet SkyTeam's membership application requirements.[8] The company reported that they applied to join Star Alliance or SkyTeam and began working in partnership with Lufthansa.[9]

History

Formation and early years

In 1946, Compagnie Générale de Transports Aériens (CGTA) was established. It started flights between Algeria and Europe on a charter basis in 1947, but by the end of the decade scheduled flights serving Algiers, Basle, Bône, Geneva, Marseilles, Paris, Philippeville, and Toulouse were operated.[10] Three 34-seater Bretagnes joined a fleet of seven DC-3s in 1952.[11] Compagnie Air Transport (CAT), subsidiary of Air France, and Compagnie Générale Transatlantique, was formed in the late 1940s to connect Basle, Lyon, Marseilles, Paris, and Toulouse with Algiers, Constantine, and Oran. Seasonal London–Deauville, and –Le Touquet flights were also undertaken. Following the drop in traffic after 1951, a merging partner was under consideration.[12]

CGTA, and CAT merged on 23 May 1953 to form the Compagnie Générale de Transports Aériens Air Algérie,[12][13] with a combined fleet that included one Breguet 761, six Bretagnes, five DC-3s, and three DC-4s.[14] Following merger, Air Algérie commenced seasonal services to Ajaccio, Clermont, Montpellier, and Perpignan. Furthermore, Switzerland was added to the regular schedule, a stop at Palma was performed on a weekly basis in partnership with Aviaco, and most of the trans-Mediterranean routes were operated in a pool agreement with Air France, with the French carrier flying 54% of these services, and the remainder was left for Air Algérie. Flights to the Cote d'Azur were added in the late 1950s.[12]

Two Noratlas aircraft were acquired in July 1957, with a third entering the fleet in July the following year. The carrier became the first French private one in ordering the Caravelle in early 1958,[15] the first of which was handed over by the manufacturer in January 1960.[16][17] Following delivery, the aircraft was deployed on the Algiers–Paris route.[16][17] The type was also used to fly Paris–Bône and Paris–Oran services in the subsequent months.[18] By April 1960, the aircraft park consisted of three Caravelles, three DC-3s, ten DC-4s, two Lockheed L-749 Constellations, and three Noratlases.[18] The Caravelles were gradually deployed on the routes previously flown with the Constellations and the DC-4s, which were used for cargo services or sold.[12]

Algerian independence

Two shipping companies, Compagnie Générale Transatlantique, and Compagnie de Navigation Mixte, were the owners of a majority stake (98%) in Air Algérie until Algeria gained its independence in 1962.[19][20]: 934  Following independence, the Délégation Générale in Algeria and Air France took over a controlling interest.[20]: 934  The financial structure changed in March 1963, when the shipping companies and Air France ceded a 31% interest,[20]: 934  and the Algerian government took possession of 51% of the company assets, with the airline gaining flag carrier status.[21]: 1514  In April 1964, the government increased the participation in the airline to 57%.[22] That month, a contract was signed for the acquisition of two Ilyushin Il-18s aimed at operating the Algiers–Moscow service.[12][23] Air Algérie took delivery of just one of these aircraft, as the contract was later cancelled. The sole Il-18 in the fleet was used by the government.[12] There were eight DC-4s in the airline's fleet by April 1968.[19] That year, four ex-Lufthansa Convair 440s were bought and converted to the 640 version. These aircraft came to replace the ageing DC-4s. Charter operations made up to 20% of the airline activities.[24]

By March 1970, the government was the owner of 83% of the company; at this time, a Boeing 737-200, five Caravelles, four CV-640s, three DC-3s and one DC-4 were part of the fleet.[25] Société de Travail Aérien, a domestic carrier that had been founded in 1968, was taken over by Air Algérie in May 1972.[26][27] In August, three Fokker F27-400s were ordered for £2.5 million.[28] In September, with a second Boeing 737 pending delivery, two more aircraft of the type —one of them a convertible model— were ordered.[29] That year, the government of Algeria boosted its participation in the carrier to 100% when it acquired the remaining 17.74% stake held by Air France.[30] A new route to Karachi was inaugurated in 1975.[31] In November 1979, four Boeing 727s were ordered in a deal worth US$62 million.[32]

By July 1980, Air Algérie had 5,621 employees and a fleet comprising 57 aircraft, including 14 Ag-Cats, six Boeing 727-200s, ten Boeing 737-200s, three Boeing 737-200Cs, one Boeing 747-200C, one Cherokee Six, two Convair CV-640s, one Douglas DC-8-63CF, one Nord 262 and 18 Queen Airs; at this time, the company offered international scheduled services to Belgium, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Egypt, France, Germany, Italy, Yugoslavia, Libya, Romania, Spain, the UK, the USSR and Switzerland, among other countries, as well as an extensive domestic network.[33] In January 1981, the carrier ordered three Lockheed L-100-30s;[34][nb 1] by late June the same year, the first of these aircraft was due to be delivered.[36] In November 1981, a Boeing 727-200 and a Boeing 737-200 were acquired.[37] Three Boeing 737-200s were ordered for US$50 million in 1983.[38] Air Algérie became Airbus' 48th customer when it placed an order for two Airbus A310s in 1984.[39] That year, a subsidiary called Inter Air Services (IAS) (French: Lignes Intérieures Algériennes), an airline that flew domestic and regional services using Fokker F-27 aircraft, was formed.[31] The IAS network was operated on Air Algéries's behalf, and at March 1985 included Adrar, Algiers, Bechar, Bordj B. Mokhtar, Djanet, El Golea, Ghardaia, Hassi Messaoud, Illizi, In Amenas, In Salah, Oran, Ouargla, Tamanrasset and Timimoun;[40] by this time, Air Algérie had 6,788 employees.[41] In 1989, the carrier ordered three Boeing 767-300s for US$264 million.[42]

The first Boeing 767-300 was handed over by the aircraft manufacturer in mid-1990.[43] That year, the carrier entered a process of restructuring that would last until 1995,[44] following years of losses that totalled US$64,000,000 (equivalent to $143,356,088 in 2022) only for 1990, with debts rising to US$402 million after a devaluation of the local currency.[45] Restructuring seemingly bore fruit, as the company made a profit of US$14.5 million in 1992.[44]

Air Algérie and Sonatrach created Tassili Airlines in 1998; Air Algérie's 49% shareholding in this airline was handed over to Sonatrach in 2005.[46][47]

Modernization of the company

Air Algérie became a limited company in 1997.[48] In 2006 its capital amounted to 57 billion dinars (about 560 million euros).[49]

The sales network comprises 150 agencies in Algeria and abroad, linked to the booking system and distributed through GDS to which Air Algérie has subscribed. Air Algérie is a Joint Stock Company (J.S.C) the registered capital of which is 43.000.000.000,00 DA.[50]

In November 2010, Air Algérie announced an investment of €400 million to renew its fleet, to be launched in 2011.[51]

Recent developments and future plans

An Air Algérie Boeing 737-600 on short final to Frankfurt Airport in 2013. The airline received the first aircraft of the type in 2002.[83]

Ten Next Generation 737s—seven-800s and three-600s—were ordered in 1998 to replace the ageing Boeing 727-200s and Boeing 737-200s;[84][85][86] the 737-600 commitment was later increased to include two more aircraft.[87] The first Boeing 737-800 included in this order was handed over by the airframer in August 2000.[88][89][90] When the first Boeing 737-600 was delivered to the company in May 2002, Air Algérie became the fifth airline worldwide in operating the type.[91]

Five Airbus A330-200s were ordered in late 2003, along with nine ATR72-500s—six of them taken over from and order previously placed by Khalifa Airways. The former type would act as a replacement for the two Airbus A310s, a Boeing 747-200 and three Boeing 767-300s, while the latter would replace the seven-strong Fokker F27 fleet.[92][93] Four more ATR72-500s were ordered in 2009 at a cost of approximately US$82 million,[94][95] with the first of these 66-seater four turboprop machines being phased-in in February 2010.[96] Also in 2009, during the Dubai Airshow, Air Algérie announced the purchase of seven additional Boeing 737-800s.[97][98] In April 2011, the fourth aircraft from this order became the 50th Boeing jetliner delivered to the company.[99]

In November 2012, the airline announced an investment worth €600 million for the incorporation of eight aircraft, two of them freighters, between 2012 and 2016.[100] Air Algérie had its IOSA certification renewed in December 2012, for a period of two years.[101][102] In February 2013, unofficial announcements disclosed the airline has ordered three additional Airbus A330-200s, five additional Boeing 737-800s. It was also reported the carrier's intention of deploying the new A330s on new routes to Johannesburg, New York, Shanghai and São Paulo.[103]

The airline launched in April 2013 a tender for the acquisition of 14 passenger and two cargo aircraft.[104] Plans for the purchase of new equipment worth US$762 million (€556 million), including three 250-seater airframes to replace the ageing Boeing 767s, were disclosed again in December 2013;[74] already in November, Air Algérie signed a letter of intent with Airbus for three Airbus A330-200s at the 2013 Dubair Air Show.[105][106][107] In January 2014, three 68-seater ATR 72-600s were ordered,[108] and a commitment for eight Boeing 737-800s, valued at US$724 million at list prices, was signed with Boeing.[109][110] The ATR order made Air Algérie the largest operator of the type within Africa.[111] In May the same year, two Boeing 737-700Cs were ordered for US$152 million.[112] Air Algérie's first ATR 72-600 was handed over to the company in December 2014.[113]

In June 2023, the company ordered five Airbus A330-900s and two Airbus A350-1000s from Airbus;[114] an order for eight Boeing 737 MAX 9 was placed with Boeing and a commitment for the purchase of two Boeing 737BCFs was also signed.[115] In addition to this, 10 other aircraft will be leased, including four Airbus A330ceo, two Airbus A330-900, two Boeing 737-800 and two Boeing 737 MAX 9.[116][117][118]

Accidents and incidents

Fatal

Non-fatal

  • On 8 June 1949, the right main landing gear of an Air Algérie Douglas C-47 Skytrain (registered F-BCYO) collapsed upon landing at Lyon-Bron Airport, following a cargo flight from Algiers. During the crash landing, the aircraft was destroyed, but the three crew members survived.[148]
  • On 30 October 1951, an Air Algérie Sud-Ouest Bretagne (registered F-OAIY) caught fire and was subsequently destroyed at Paris-Orly Airport, following the sudden collapse of the right main landing gear during take-off run. All 30 passengers and 4 crew members on board could be saved.[149]
  • On 26 April 1962, shortly after the end of the Algerian War, a parked Air Algérie Lockheed Constellation (registered F-BAZE) was blown up at Maison Blanche Airport by OAS terrorists, a militant French far-right nationalist group strongly opposed to the independence of Algeria.[150]
  • On 23 September 1973, an Air Algérie Sud Aviation Caravelle (registered 7T-VAI) was damaged beyond repair in a landing accident at Algiers-Dar el Beida Airport.[151]
  • On 1 August 1989, an Air Algérie Lockheed L-100 Hercules cargo aircraft suffered a ground loop upon landing at Tamanrasset Airport following a flight from Algiers, resulting in the aircraft being damaged beyond repair.[152]
  • On 25 July 1991, the nosegear of an Air Algérie Fokker F27 Friendship (registered 7T-VRM) collapsed during a hard landing at In Guezzam Airport, damaging the aircraft beyond repair.[153]
  • On 2 August 1996, an Air Algérie Boeing 737-200 (registered 7T-VED) overran the runway at Tlemcen Airport in an attempt to abort the take-off for a scheduled flight to Algiers. There were no fatalities among the 100 passengers and 6 crew members on board, even though the aircraft was substantially damaged.[154]
  • Another runway overshot involving an Air Algérie Boeing 737-200 (this time 7T-VEH) occurred on 31 January 1999. Upon landing at Constantine Airfield in unusual snowy conditions following a flight from Paris, the aircraft was severely damaged when it overshot the runway and struck a heap of snow. There were no casualties among the 92 passengers and 7 crew members.[155]
  • On 18 March 2006 at 10:30 local time, the right main landing gear of an Air Algérie Boeing 737-600 (registered 7T-VJQ) collapsed upon landing in poor weather conditions at Seville Airport following a flight from Oran. Approximately 45 out of the 101 passengers and 6 crew members on board were injured.[156]
  • On 14 March 2008, an Air Algérie Boeing 737-800 (registered 7T-VKA) that was operating Flight 1143 from Paris to Sétif with 120 people on board suffered extensive damage during a hard landing at Ain Arnat Airport.[157]

Hijackings

  • On 31 August 1970, three passengers armed with pistols and molotov cocktails hijacked an Air Algérie Convair CV-640 on a scheduled domestic flight from Annaba to Algiers and demanded the pilots to head to Albania instead. During a fuel stop in Brindisi, eleven passengers were allowed to leave the aircraft. As the aircraft was denied landing permission by the Albanian authorities, it diverted to Dubrovnik in then Yugoslavia instead, where the perpetrators could be arrested.[158]
  • When an Air Algérie Boeing 737-200 landed at Houari Boumedienne Airport on 31 March 1991 (during the Algerian Civil War) following a scheduled passenger flight from Béchar, a passenger threatened to detonate a hand grenade and insisted on being allowed to have a political statement on live national television, concerning the planned national election. The demand was rejected, and the hijacker was persuaded to give up and set free the 53 other persons on board.[159]
  • A similar hijacking occurred on 13 November 1994 on board an Air Algérie Fokker F27 Friendship (registered 7T-VRK) during a flight from Algiers to Ouargla. The aircraft with 42 occupants was forced to divert to Palma de Mallorca Airport, where the three perpetrators surrendered.[160]
  • On 25 July 1996 at around 9:00 local time, an Air Algérie Boeing 767-300 with 232 persons on board was hijacked at Oran Es Sénia Airport by a man who demanded to be flown to the United States, rather than to Algiers where the aircraft had been scheduled to leave for. After more than four hours of negotiation he surrendered to the local authorities.[161]
  • On 19 January 2003, Air Algérie Flight 6025 from Constantine to Algiers was hijacked shortly after take-off by a man who demanded the pilots fly the Boeing 737-800 to North Korea. The flight continued to Algiers, though, where the perpetrator could be restrained by police forces storming the aircraft. None of the 24 other passengers and 6 crew members were injured.[162]
  • On 19 August 2003, an Air Algérie Boeing 737-800 was hijacked by a mentally-ill passenger right after take-off from Houari Boumedienne Airport, who threatened to blow up the aircraft when the crew would not divert to Geneva (rather than to Lille as the flight was scheduled to). The crew carried out an allegedly necessary fuel stop at Oran Es Sénia Airport, where the man could be arrested.[163]
