Algerian Flag Carrier Expands Fleet Renewal With New Narrowbody Jets

Air Algérie has placed an order for 10 Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, with deliveries scheduled to begin in summer 2026. The move is part of the airline’s ongoing fleet renewal efforts, aimed at replacing and supplementing its existing short- and medium-haul fleet. The order includes five aircraft arriving in 2026 and five in 2027, and adds to the airline’s previous commitment to eight 737 MAX 9s. Air Algérie is also in the process of renewing its long-haul fleet with Airbus A330-900s. The airline’s fleet modernization efforts were first reported by AeroTime.
