Casablanca to Miami with RAM


Next spring Royal Air Maroc plans to launch a new connection between Casablanca and Miami - its third destination in the United States after New York and Washington

The Moroccan national airline is expected to inaugurate the new service on April 3, 2019. There will be three flights per week between its base in Casablanca-Mohammed V and Miami Airport, operated by Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Royal Air Maroc has not yet formalised this line and its schedules. Miami has not had a direct route to Africa since 2000 and the departure of South African Airways.

Royal Air Maroc filed an application for authorisation in July to launch flights to Florida, arguing that "40 years of successful operations demonstrate that it is fully qualified to operate in Miami" along with its flights to New York-JFK and Washington-Dulles, which it has been serving since September 2016.

Royal Air Morocco has a code-sharing agreement with JetBlue Airways in the United States, but that airline does not serve Miami. The US and Morocco have signed an open skies agreement, but Casablanca airport does not host any US companies. Royal Air Maroc also serves Montreal in North America, and Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro in Brazil.
