TUI Fly drops four Morocco routes from Lille, including Agadir and Casablanca

TUI Fly drops four Morocco routes from Lille, including Agadir and Casablanca

TUI fly flights linking Lille-Lesquin Airport to four Moroccan cities have been removed from the schedule since the beginning of November. Agadir, Casablanca, Marrakech and Oujda are the destinations affected by the decision. The move reduces direct travel options to the kingdom for travelers in northern France.

The Belgian airline had operated routes between Lille and Morocco for several years. In 2022, it still offered seven Moroccan destinations from the northern French airport, including Fès, Nador and Tanger, in addition to the four cities affected today.

This latest reduction is part of a broader reorganization of the TUI group’s aviation activities. Peter Glade, TUI Airline’s chief commercial officer, says the group wants to focus its aircraft on markets with the strongest growth prospects. In its summer 2027 programme, it is now prioritizing joint planning between tour operators, distributors and passengers buying tickets only.

The withdrawal of the Lille routes also comes as TUI fly Belgium prepares to close its two Moroccan bases in Casablanca and Marrakech. The restructuring will eliminate at least nine routes between Morocco, France and Italy.

At the same time, TUI is expanding its offer from Brussels. For summer 2027, the airline plans to launch new routes to Fès and Essaouira, as well as increase the number of flights to Marrakech and Agadir.

Lille Airport is thus facing another reduction in its air services, following the hundreds of flights removed from Volotea’s winter schedule. The cuts announced by TUI affect only its own routes, however: Royal Air Maroc is keeping a Lille–Casablanca route in its winter 2026-2027 schedule.
