Turkish and Algerian civil aviation authorities inked an agreement in Ankara on Tuesday to more than double the number of reciprocal flights.

"A Memorandum of Understanding was signed, allowing the number of flights between the two countries to be increased from 35 to 80 per week," Türkiye's General Directorate of Civil Aviation (SHGM) said in a statement on X platform, formerly Twitter.

The deal also removes restrictions on the destinations to which flights between the two countries can operate, it added.
