Oran Es-Sénia International Airport, officially named Ahmed Ben Bella Airport, is the principal air hub for western Algeria and the second busiest airport in the country after Houari Boumediene in Algiers. It serves the city of Oran, Algeria's second-largest city, and the wider northwestern region of the country. The airport handles a significant volume of both domestic and international traffic, with strong connections to France, Spain, and other European destinations, reflecting the large Algerian diaspora in Europe. It has undergone modernization efforts to expand capacity and improve passenger services. Named after Ahmed Ben Bella, Algeria's first president, the airport plays a vital economic and logistical role for the Oran region, supporting trade, tourism, and the movement of migrant workers traveling between Algeria and Europe.
