## Description

Air Algérie's roughly twelve weekly flights to Algiers, supplemented by Tassili Airlines, define what Béchar Boudghene Ben Ali Lotfi Airport (CBH/DAOR) can offer freight customers in Algeria's far south-west: belly capacity on passenger aircraft and nothing more. No cargo terminal, scheduled freighter service or dedicated air-cargo customs facility is documented at this Saharan gateway, which sits at about 811 metres above sea level. The mining, construction and supply goods that move through Béchar travel instead on national route RN6 and the rail line toward Oran, typically a one- to two-day run to the coast. For planned air-freight volumes, Algiers Houari Boumediene (ALG) is the national reference point, while Oran Ahmed Ben Bella (ORN) lies closer at roughly 700 road kilometres and suits consignments from the western Mediterranean. Import formalities are handled at those coastal gateways rather than locally. Shippers with time-critical goods should budget an extra day for the road leg from the coast into Béchar.
