Air Malta to restart Algiers route

Air Malta today announced it will recommence its flights to Algiers on 19 March, following the encouraging results of last summer's venture to the Algerian capital.

Flights will follow a twice weekly schedule, on Mondays and Thursdays, throughout summer.

While supporting and promoting commercial links between the two countries, Air Malta's said its operation will stimulate the movement of tourism in both directions.

The schedule is designed to also offer connectivity to and from Air Malta destinations beyond Malta in both directions.

Algeria is the largest country in Africa and will soon have a Maltese consulate general which will offer efficient visa facilities.
