Flights to Morocco: tickets could increase by another 10% in 2027

Travelers heading to Morocco could continue to face more expensive airfares in 2027. Tourism Economics estimates that airfares could remain 5 to 10% above its previous forecasts if fuel-related tensions persist.

In its analysis of the impact of fuel on air transport, Tourism Economics, a subsidiary of Oxford Economics, estimates that rising kerosene prices will continue to weigh on ticket prices in 2026 and 2027.

This projection concerns the international air market as a whole and not specifically routes to Morocco. However, it affects airlines serving the Kingdom, at a time when rising kerosene prices are already weighing heavily on flight prices to Morocco.

Pressure that could last into 2027

Tourism Economics expects fares to be 5 to 10% higher than the levels it had anticipated before the energy shock. This does not necessarily mean a new 10% increase between 2026 and 2027, but rather that tickets could remain persistently more expensive than expected.

Fuel is one of the main explanations. The organization notes that the price of kerosene has risen sharply, prompting some airlines to raise their fares or apply surcharges, even though competition and demand limit their ability to pass these costs on in full.

For its part, Oxford Economics believes that tensions in the oil market could continue before gradually easing in 2027.

For MREs and other travelers who regularly fly to Morocco, particularly during holidays and periods of high demand, 2027 may therefore not mark a rapid return to cheaper tickets.
