Royal Air Maroc strengthens flight program to Spain, Portugal
Morocco’s flagship airline Royal Air Maroc (RAM) reinforces its flight program to Spain and Portugal, as part of its strategic development plan, aiming to open new routes and relaunch the suspended connections during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Thus, the company will launch a new air route Seville-Tangier-Casablanca and reopen two routes that were operational before the pandemic with Tenerife and Porto, from Casablanca.
This new flight program was announced Thursday in Madrid at a press conference held in the presence of several Spanish and Moroccan economic operators, airline officials and Spanish employers, diplomats and representatives of tour operators.
This new service will meet the demand of Spanish and Moroccan tourists, as well as Moroccans living in Spain. Offered on days and times adapted to these customers, the route will operate every Friday and Sunday.
In addition, Royal Air Maroc will also reopen two routes suspended since the Covid 19 health crisis. The company will restore the direct air routes from Casablanca to Porto and Tenerife, which will be launched from December 9.
Royal Air Maroc will resume the Casablanca-Tenerife route with two frequencies per week (Thursday and Saturday).
The Portuguese market is also concerned by the strengthening of the flight program. Royal Air Maroc will restore, from December 9, 2022, the Casablanca-Porto route with two frequencies per week (Monday and Friday).
“With the resumption of traffic, Royal Air Maroc is committed to strengthening its offer to confirm its status as a reference player in Moroccan tourism and a major airline in our continent. We are thus mobilizing to consolidate our position in major tourist markets such as France and Spain and to support our anchoring in Africa, where our network now includes 27 destinations. Our commitment also continues with the Moroccan and African diasporas by launching and re-establishing direct routes that bring them closer to their mother countries,” says Hamid Addou, Royal Air Maroc CEO, quoted in a RAM press release.
