Ryanair cuts Belgium-Morocco flights winter 2026-2027

Bad news for Moroccan travelers from Belgium. Ryanair will significantly reduce its operations during winter 2026-2027, with the seasonalization of several routes previously operated year-round. Specifically, certain destinations will no longer be served in winter and will only return during the high summer season.

This decision could directly impact Moroccan cities. According to Mobilithib, Marrakech is among the affected routes from Brussels Airport. In Charleroi, several Moroccan destinations are also listed among the impacted routes: Essaouira, Nador, Oujda and Tétouan.

Flights concentrated on summer

Ryanair justifies this reduction by the increase in Belgian federal air tax, which the company deems too burdensome. The Irish low-cost carrier plans to remove five aircraft based in Charleroi and eliminate approximately one million seats on the Belgian market for winter 2026-2027, representing a decrease of about 22% of its capacity in the country.

The company is pressuring Belgian authorities, claiming that these taxes make departures from Belgium less competitive than in other European countries. Belgian airports, meanwhile, fear a drop in traffic and consequences for local employment.
