Jijel Ferhat Abbas Airport (IATA: GJL, ICAO: DAAV) is a regional airport located near the town of Tahir in Jijel Province, northeastern Algeria. Named after Ferhat Abbas, a prominent figure of the Algerian independence movement, the airport serves the coastal Jijel region along the Mediterranean. The airport handles primarily domestic traffic connecting Jijel to Algiers and other Algerian cities, with limited international or charter services. It plays an important role in linking this relatively remote northeastern province to the rest of the country, given that road connections through the mountainous terrain can be challenging. As a smaller regional facility, Jijel Ferhat Abbas Airport operates with modest infrastructure and passenger volumes, serving the local population and Algerian diaspora travelers, particularly during peak summer periods.
