Royal Air Maroc's Summer 2025 Flight Program Offers 6.6 Million Seats
In a statement, RAM stressed that its summer program is aimed at supporting the massive return of Moroccans living abroad during the summer holidays.
'Royal Air Maroc is boosting its service and launching an unprecedented flight schedule,' the company said, noting that the number of seats deployed represents a record-breaking offer.
The number represents a significant increase of 700,0000 seats compared to the 2024 summer flight program, the company added, noting that the airline will serve 95 destinations worldwide.
Royal Air Maroc's goal, added the statement, is to meet the growing needs of a diverse clientele, including Moroccans, African diaspora, and international tourists.
RAM's CEO Hamid Addou described the company's offer as 'exceptional, noting that the system the company put in place for this season is 'fully aligned with the airline's development strategy.'
'With an expanded offer, a modernized fleet, and operational innovations, we are reaffirming our commitment to our passengers and consolidating Morocco's position as a strategic air hub,' Addou said, noting that the efforts reflect the company's desire to offer ever-smoother and more enjoyable travel experiences.'
For Addou, all teams are mobilized to ensure the success of the summer season, particularly for our citizens living abroad.
The company's statement stressed its commitment to reinforce leadership in Africa, with two additional weekly flights to Nouakchott, bringing the total to nine weekly flights.
Flights to Dakar will increase to two per day, or 14 flights per week.
The four direct routes connecting Casablanca to Malaga, Valencia, Lisbon, and Porto will also be operated by medium-haul aircraft, including Boeing 737s and Embraer 190s.
The company also announced that it will charter four aircraft from internationally renowned airlines, noting that those flights are next-generation models selected based on safety and comfort criteria.
'RAM reduced the number of charted aircraft thanks to the addition of eight new planes to its fleet,' the company stated, adding that the number includes Boeing 787-900 Dreamliners for long-haul flights and six Boeing 737-8 Max aircraft for medium-haul routes.
The new summer system comes as Morocco launched earlier this month the Marhaba Operation, an annual campaign the country dedicates to facilitating the transit of Moroccans residing abroad during summer holidays.
The company's pledges come as RAM has been under increasing scrutiny, following a series of troubling incidents, including expensive ticket prices, as well as frequent luggage handling disruption that causes significant delays and disruptions for travelers. Tags: Morocco summer timeRoyal Air Maroc

Revolut seeks regulatory approval from Morocco's Central Bank
Revolut is making its move in Morocco. After appointing a head of operations to lead its entry into the Moroccan banking sector, the British neobank has reportedly submitted a request for regulatory approval to Bank Al-Maghrib, Morocco's central bank. According to L'Economiste on Tuesday, Revolut «has undertaken all necessary steps, including submitting a request for regulatory approval to Bank Al-Maghrib», to secure its entry into the country and launch its activities. While awaiting a response from the Moroccan central bank, the fintech giant, which claims a global user base of 60 million, will continue its recruitment drive to support operations in Morocco. In July, Revolut appointed its first executive to lead its Moroccan operations: Amine Berrada, former operations director for Uber in Southern and Eastern Europe. He is tasked with steering Revolut's strategic direction and growth in Morocco. «I'm thrilled to contribute to launching and scaling its presence in Morocco (…) helping bring cutting-edge financial services to millions of Moroccans», he wrote on LinkedIn. This development confirms information reported by Yabiladi last April, which revealed Revolut's plans for a phased entry into Morocco, beginning as a payment operator with ambitions to obtain a full banking license within two years. Indeed, this latest move is not directly related to obtaining a full-fledged banking license in the country. If granted, this approval will give Revolut the green light to start operations in a limited financial services capacity under Moroccan law. Revolut, with a valuation exceeding €40 billion, offers a fully digital, smartphone-based experience, featuring quick account opening, fee-free international payments, multi-currency cards, trading, cryptocurrency services, and budgeting tools, appealing to a young, mobile, and connected clientele. Founded in July 2015 by British-Russian entrepreneur Nikolay Storonsky and British-Ukrainian software engineer Vlad Yatsenko, Revolut has grown into one of the most prominent players in global fintech.
