## Description

Batna's Mostefa Ben Boulaid Airport (BLJ) is a passenger airport first and foremost, not a freight point. Set in the Aurès region near the Roman site of Timgad, it links the city mainly to Algiers through Air Algérie and Tassili Airlines, with seasonal international charters. Dedicated cargo terminals and freighter services are absent, so airfreight is limited to occasional belly loads. Shippers needing real capacity route via Algiers Houari Boumediene or Constantine's Mohamed Boudiaf Airport, both reachable by national road.
