TEE → ALG
Which side of the plane to sit from Cheikh Larbi Tébessi Airport (Tebessa) to Houari Boumediene Airport (Algier)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic Djurdjura mountain range and a stunning coastal approach over the Bay of Algiers during descent.
Tell Atlas Forests
Dense cedar and oak forests covering the northern mountain ranges as you fly westward.
Djurdjura Range
Spectacular views of the jagged limestone peaks of Kabylie, often snow-capped during winter months.
Mediterranean Horizon
The deep blue of the sea becomes visible as the aircraft aligns for its approach to the capital.
Algiers Bay
A panoramic view of the 'White City' and its harbor during the final stages of the descent into ALG.
The right side is essential for the best approach views. For the most dramatic scenery, book a flight during the winter or spring to see the Djurdjura mountains covered in snow against the Mediterranean backdrop.
Djebel Tebessa
Immediate views of the rugged limestone peaks surrounding the airport right after takeoff.
High Plateaus
Vast stretches of the semi-arid steppe landscape that define the interior of eastern Algeria.
Saharan Atlas Fringe
Distant sightings of the southern mountain chains that act as the gateway to the Sahara Desert.
Sit on the left for better lighting during early morning flights as the sun rises in the east. Keep an eye out for the distinct geometric patterns of traditional agricultural plots on the plateaus.
