Emirates will utilise its Boeing 777-300ER aircraft between Algiers and Dubai, and the new flights will operate on Saturdays and Sundays, in addition to the current Tuesday and Thursday services.

Flight EK758 departs Algiers at 3.45pm, arriving in Dubai at 1.05am the next day. EK757 departs Dubai at 8.45am, arriving in Algiers at 12.55pm.

Omar Alhemeiri – Manager Algeria, said: “We have seen a marked increase in passenger demand to and from Algiers, especially to Dubai and onwards to other destinations that are gradually opening or easing their restrictions across our network. We hope that by increasing our frequency into Algeria, we are able to support traffic flows in and out of the country as it continues its post-pandemic economic recovery, and it is also a testament to our commitment to Algeria.”

Tickets can be purchased on the carrier’s website, at its sales office, via travel agents or through online travel agents.

Customers are encouraged to check the latest government travel restrictions in their country of origin to ensure they meet the travel requirements of their final destination.
