I flew from Algeria for the first time. A new, large airport, everything is organized clearly, everything is very clean, but there are a lot, as it seemed to me, of all kinds of checks. Starting from the entrance to the airport. Hot in Moscow and St. Petersburg as well.
For a very long time, the border guards passed, two booths worked and we stood in a serpentine line and slowly moved forward.
Therefore, after passing the check-in, immediately move on to still get into the departure zone. In the departure area, all kinds of cafes, duty free, in general, as in all other airports.
I wish you all a good mood and pleasant flights.
A new large airport. A bright terminal, high ceilings, huge windows, several souvenir shops, two small cafes. However, organization and discipline are not enough yet. The boarding terminal was changed several times. The travelator is defective. Announcements and information messages sound very loud, but inarticulate. Frequent flight delays.. There is still a lot to work on.
The modern new airport named after Houari Boumediana (Algeria) we had a short docking, the customs formalities were completed quickly, the customs services were friendly, friendly to Russians as in other things and to everyone else. The airport is big and new, good Internet, there is WiFi. There was one cafe and several shops with national sweets in the transit zone. I am sure that such a modern and large airport will still set the dynamics and human fuss. In the meantime, there is an opportunity to enjoy the pleasant views and modern airport infrastructure in Algiers.
