This initiative primarily targets Moroccans residing abroad, many of whom return to Morocco during vacation periods. The airline plans to serve 86 international destinations, distributed across Europe, Africa, the Americas, Asia and the Middle East.

Europe remains the primary market for MREs. Royal Air Maroc will offer more than 3 million seats there, up 22%, with 44 destinations served in countries where large Moroccan communities live.

More seats to Morocco

Africa will also benefit from significant reinforcement, with more than 1.8 million seats, representing a 36% increase. Royal Air Maroc thus wants to consolidate Casablanca’s role as a continental hub, the airline indicates in its summer program.

Connections to Asia and the Middle East will exceed 524,000 seats, notably thanks to flights to China, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. The Americas will also grow, with 723,000 seats to the United States, Canada and Brazil.

The domestic network is not forgotten. RAM plans nearly 1.2 million seats on domestic routes, up 18%, to improve service to Moroccan regions during peak season.

The airline also highlights a sensitive point for travelers: the entire summer program will be operated with its own fleet, without resorting to chartered aircraft. RAM will have 67 aircraft, with the arrival of new planes during the summer.
