Royal Air Maroc Halts Casablanca-Beijing Flights Amid Coronavirus Concerns

RAM is temporarily suspending its flights to Beijing, the Chinese capital. Launched on January 16, this route was operated by Boeing B787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, three times a week. According to the company, this suspension is due to "the sharp drop in demand on the Casablanca-Beijing-Casablanca flights".

It reassures customers originally scheduled on this route beyond January 31 that they will be personally informed, using the contact details in their booking files (mobile phone and/or email address), arguing that new travel dates will be offered to them, without additional fees.

For any information request, RAM invites its customers to contact the following numbers: "Morocco: 089000 0800" and "International Number: +212522489797", adds the press release.

Like RAM, several airlines, including Air Austral, Air Canada, KLM, Lufthansa, Swiss, British Airways and Iberia, have suspended their flights to China.
