Prices
Extra bags are priced per piece, by route and direction: fees for flights departing Algeria (DZ) are charged in DZD; inbound fees are charged in the foreign origin country's currency (e.g. EUR for France, GBP for the UK, USD for Turkey, Egypt and Beirut). Two timing tiers apply — ">24h" means purchased more than 24 hours before the flight, "<24h" means less than 24 hours before the flight or at the airport. Up to 4 extra pieces per passenger depending on the route (up to 2 on ATR aircraft; only 1 extra piece on international medium-haul Air Algérie aircraft and chartered aircraft). The official tariff PDF is the authoritative source.

The official tariff applies two rates per route: a lower rate for extra bags purchased more than 24 hours before the flight, and a higher rate within 24 hours of departure or at the airport.
- Less than 24 hours before departure or at the airportvaries by route (late tier)
- The late tier is markedly higher than the advance rate for the first extra piece — roughly 10% to 100% more depending on the route, e.g. the 1st extra bag to/from France is 40 EUR / 6.000 DZD in advance vs 80 EUR / 12.000 DZD late.
- Exact late-tier figures for every route are listed in the official tariff PDF.
