Volotea cancels more Christmas flights to Marrakech and Agadir after scrapping 700
Another disappointment for travelers planning to visit Morocco over the Christmas holidays. Volotea has just canceled around 100 more flights at Lille Airport, including services to Marrakech and Agadir, following an initial wave of 700 cancellations in October.
On Wednesday, November 11, several passengers received an email informing them that their booking had been canceled. According to Air Journal, the latest cancellations mainly affect the Christmas holidays and cover six destinations: Marrakech, Agadir, Bordeaux, Montpellier, Nice and Perpignan.

The cancellations come a month after Volotea significantly cut its winter schedule at Lille-Lesquin. In early October, the airline canceled around 700 flights between autumn 2026 and spring 2027, while assuring passengers these would be its final adjustments of the year.
The airline says the latest decision is due to an accelerated phase-out of its Airbus A319s. Volotea now plans to operate a fleet made up mainly of A320s, a reorganization that has forced it to make further cuts to its schedule over the holidays.
Travelers to Morocco had already faced several postponements. The resumption of the Lille–Agadir and Lille–Marrakech routes had been pushed back to December 19, after initially being scheduled for early November. Some flights planned for the holiday period have now been canceled.

Affected passengers can request a refund or rerouting to their destination. European regulations guarantee them this choice in the event of a cancellation. Travelers who booked a flight to Agadir or Marrakech are advised to check with Volotea to find out about changes to their flight.
