Ryanair ranks a Moroccan city in its Top 5 must-see destinations for 2026

This is a consecration for the Moroccan city, confirming its growing international appeal. Ryanair has officially included Rabat in its very exclusive circle of the five "flagship destinations" for the new year, alongside cities like Bratislava or Pescara. This choice is not a matter of chance but is based on a significant increase in air connectivity: as early as April 2026, the Irish company will open a new base in Rabat with two aircraft. This strategic establishment will allow the flight program to be increased to a total of 20 routes, thus connecting the Moroccan capital to several major European cities.

For the low-cost carrier, Rabat embodies the perfect blend of tradition and modernity, offering travelers elegant architecture, breathtaking coastal views, and a thriving cultural scene. The company presents the city as a "must-see" destination for both authentic and affordable stays. This promotion comes as Morocco is preparing to play a central role in the sporting and cultural events of the coming years, strengthening its status as a major tourist hub.

In this ranking, Rabat is the only African and Arab destination cited, positioning itself alongside fast-growing European competitors. It shares the bill with Bratislava (Slovakia), which sees its capacity increase by 70%, Tirana (Albania) which will also host a new base, the coastal city of Pescara in Italy, and finally Gdańsk, the jewel of the Baltic in Poland. A great recognition that promises a record year 2026 for Rabat-Salé airport.
