Another press release from the national airline, Royal Air Maroc, confirms the government decision, postponing flights to and from Italy, until further notice.

"To this end, Royal Air Maroc is setting up a special system to support its customers in managing their travel, following these changes. Thus, customers will be able, if they wish, to postpone their trip to a later date, free of charge; or cancel their trip no later than 72 hours before the departure of the flight, in exchange for a credit of the same value of the ticket, valid for six months and to be used exclusively on the company’s flights".
