Royal Air Maroc plans to open a series of new U.S. routes in the coming years as part of a strategic vision what would turn the Oneworld Alliance member into a global east-west and north-south connector.<\/p>\n
On the drawing board for the Moroccan national carrier is Casablanca-Los Angeles service by 2027. Then, service from Morocco to San Francisco, Chicago and Boston in the decade that follows, as well as the first nonstops from the U.S. to Marrakech and Rabat, which would operate out of New York JFK.<\/p>\n
Each of the new routes would join the carrier’s current service between Casablanca and JFK, Washington Dulles and Miami.<\/p>\n
This summer, the Moroccan government entered into a new capital agreement with Royal Air Maroc geared toward growing the airline faster, in part to expand Moroccan tourism. Specifics of that financing deal have not been unveiled, but as part of the arrangement, the airline has set a target of growing its fleet to 200 aircraft by 2037 from its current plane count of 50.<\/p>\n
