Rabat – Royal Air Maroc (RAM) announced on Friday upcoming new flights connecting Moroccan destinations with Spain and Portugal.
The company will also relaunch flights that were suspended during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Under the announcement, Royal Air Maroc will launch a new Seville-Tangier-Casablanca air route, starting December 4.
The new route will operate on Fridays and Sundays.
It will also reopen two routes that were operational before Covid with Tenerife and Porto, departing Casablanca, starting December 9. Casablanca-Tenerife flights will operate twice a week on Thursdays and Saturdays.
Casablanca-Porto flights will also operate on Mondays and Fridays.
Royal Air Maroc announced the new program on Thursday in Madrid in a press conference.
“With the resumption of traffic, Royal Air Maroc is committed to strengthening its offer to confirm its status as a benchmark player in Moroccan tourism and a major company on our continent,” Royal Air Maroc CEO Abdelhamid Addou said.
The company’s CEO emphasized Royal Air Maroc’s vision to strengthen its position in major tourist-generating markets, such as France and Spain.
The vision aims to strengthen Royal Air Maroc’s anchoring in Africa, where the company’s network includes 27 destinations.
“Our commitment is also continuing with the Moroccan and African diasporas by launching and re-establishing direct lines that bring them closer to their mother countries,” Addou added.
Royal Air Maroc also signed collaboration agreements between Spain’s Confederation of Business Organizations, the Iberian Business Travel Association, the Euro Africa Center, and the Ibn Battouta Foundation.
The agreements seek to consolidate the presence of Royal Air Maroc in Spain.
Karima Benyaich, Morocco’s ambassador to Spain said, “Today, we have 50 weekly flights operated by RAM, the leader in flights between Spain and Morocco and soon two new lines will be inaugurated, Seville and Tenerife.”
She said that a total of 200 weekly flights are operated between Morocco and Spain.
She also commended the opening of the new flights between the two countries, emphasizing that the decision is part of the new phase of the “strategic, ambitious and sustainable” partnership launched between them in April.
