Rabat — Operation Marhaba 2025 welcomed more than 3,167,000 passengers across Morocco’s ports and airports during its first phase, marking a 10% increase compared to last year.
This year’s 25th edition kicked off on June 10, with 26 welcome sites across Morocco and key European countries.
Tangier Med port received the largest share, with over 622,000 travelers arriving so far.
Jamal Eddine Al-Ansari, Project Manager at the Mohammed V Foundation for Solidarity, confirmed to SNRTNews that the operation proceeded smoothly.
The foundation deployed multiple efforts to support travelers, including providing social and humanitarian services through 26 reception areas inside and outside the country.
These centers have already offered 55,000 services, including nearly 4,000 medical interventions, more than 12,000 cases of customs and administrative assistance, and 955 transportation support cases.
Al-Ansari also noted that the return phase to diaspora countries is particularly sensitive due to peak travel periods.
The foundation strengthened its social and medical teams to assist travelers during this phase, and authorities are coordinating the introduction of a “closed ticket” system to manage passenger flow efficiently.
He concluded by stating that all institutions involved remain fully mobilized until the operation ends on September 15, urging Moroccan travelers to prepare their trips in advance to ensure smooth journeys.
Operation Marahaba reflects Morocco’s ongoing relationship with its diaspora, a gesture of hospitality and solidarity rooted in shared identity and care.
