Thousands of Algerians living in Canada have not been able to see their loved ones for several months. Since the resumption of Air Algeria flights with this country last October, the prices of tickets between Montreal and Algiers and have not been revised downwards.
Three airlines currently offer flights between Canada and Algeria: Air Algeria, Air France, and Lufthansa. Air Algérie is the only one to offer a direct flight. The other two offer stopover flights to Paris and Frankfurt respectively.
With the arrival of the new Omicron variant which further complicates travel conditions, what about ticket prices between Montreal and Algeria for the month of January?
Canada: strong demand on flights to Algeria
Tickets from Montreal to Algiers can be worth a fortune. The reason for this price difference is the strong demand from Algerian nationals who have not been able to travel to their country of origin for more than 2 years.
An increasingly burdensome situation for many families when we know that nearly 110,000 Algerians or people of Algerian origin currently reside in Canada.
Regarding the price of tickets, Air Algeria once again offers the most advantageous offer on the market with non-stop return flights Montreal – Algiers from 2026 Canadian dollars in January. To travel by the French company Air France, it will cost nearly $ 500 more for the same route with a stopover in Paris.
Algiers: prices of flights to Montreal
From Algiers, the most advantageous option to travel to Canada is to travel by Air Algérie, which is currently the only company to offer a direct flight. The prices displayed for the month of January start at 164,000 dinars for a return flight.
Despite a price that may seem high, most flights are already full because competing companies offer a much less advantageous offer.
Indeed, with Air France, it will cost at least 1039 euros for a return ticket with a stopover at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport.
The more daring can travel with the German company Lufthansa, but it will cost from 300,000 dinars to reach Montreal with one or two stopovers in Germany.
