Most of the land borders other than with Tunisia are closed. There are some ferries between Marseilles and Alicante and Algiers and Oran. Airlines flying to Algieria include:

• Star Alliance – EgyptAir, Lufthansa, Spanair, TAP, Turkish
• Oneworld – British Airways, Iberia
• Sky Team – Air France, Alitalia
• Other selected – Air Algerie, some North African airlines

TIP Some longhaul fares in business and first class are relatively cheap from Algeria (compared with from Western Europe).

TIP On a Oneworld around the world fare, Algeria is treated as part of Europe.
