In addition, the management of the international airport of Algiers will be done by the Company of the Airports of Paris, if this is accepted by the Council of Ministers, for one period going from three to five years; the French company will deal with rehabilitating and training the employees of the Algerian airports. It should be noted that the same French company is bound by an agreement of partnership with the Company of management of the services of the airport of Algiers Houari Boumediene, the company also ensures the management of the two airports of Paris, Orly and Roissy, and it also manages the international airport of Cairo.
