Oran is Algeria's second-largest city, on the Mediterranean coast about 430 km west of Algiers. Es-Senia International Airport (ORN), 10 km south of the centre, has direct flights to Paris, Marseille, Lyon, Madrid, Barcelona, Istanbul, Casablanca, Tunis, and Algiers, served by Air Algérie, Tassili Airlines, Air France, Transavia, Iberia, Turkish Airlines, and others.
The Port of Oran handles regular passenger ferries to Alicante, Marseille, and Sète — useful if you are bringing a car. Trains connect Oran to Algiers (about four hours on the Coradia service) and west to Sidi Bel Abbès and Tlemcen.
