The Minister of Transport, Saïd Sayoud, co-chaired a coordination meeting in Algiers on Tuesday with the Minister of State, Minister of Energy, Mines and Renewable Energies, Mohamed Arkab, to examine the project to set up a national company specializing in domestic passenger air transport, in application of the instructions of the President of the Republic, Mr. Abdelmadjid Tebboune, according to a press release from the Ministry of Transport.
The same source said, "The meeting provided an opportunity to discuss
the practical arrangements for transferring Tassili Airlines' assets and human

this strategic project".
On this occasion, it was decided to "set up a joint working group bringing together representatives of the sectors concerned, charged with starting without delay the execution of the operation of transferring the aircraft belonging to Tassili Airlines and the human resources to the benefit of the new company".
The representatives of the Sonatrach group, the acting CEO of Tassili Airlines, the CEO of Air Algérie, the CEO of the Agence Nationale de l'Aviation Civile (ANAC) (National Civil Aviation Agency), the CEO of the Entreprise Nationale de la Navigation Aérienne (ENNA) (National Air Navigation Company), as well as representatives of the Ministry of National Defence and executives from the Ministries of Transport and Energy, attended the meeting.
"This strategic project aims to reinforce geographical complementarity across the country by strengthening air connectivity between the country's various wilayas, thereby helping to support socio-economic development", says the ministry.
On 12 March, President Tebboune chaired a working meeting to examine the air transport situation, particularly Air Algérie and Tassili Airlines. At the end of this meeting, it was decided to set up a company specialising in domestic air transport, under Air Algérie.
