Moroccans residing in Morocco, who left the country on September 1, 2021, as well as their accompanying spouses and children, are the only group eligible for exceptional flights organized by the royal air Morocco (RAM), announced the air flights company.

In a series of tweets, RAM updated passengers about the eligibility conditions for special flights from the United Arab Emirates, Portugal, and Turkey to Morocco.

Morocco suspended passenger flights from and to the country from the end of November to a later date. However, the Kingdom announced exceptional flights from Portugal, Turkey, and the United Arab to allow Moroccans stranded there to return to the Kingdom.

Following recording the first case of Omicron in the Kingdom, questions were raised about the continuity of exceptional flights and the new rules that the government may amend following the end of Omicron-free in the country.

The national air flights company, RAM, said yesterday eligible Moroccans must present, at check-in, an ID card or passport with address in Morocco, as well as a negative PCR test less than 48 hours to be able to reserve a place in the exceptional flights hiding to the Kingdom.

Despite saying the first registered Omicron case is “mutated in Morocco” and “not coming from abroad, the state is tightening rules on international flights fearing a new wave of the virus, as the scientific committee is saying the country’s hospitals will not survive a strong spike of the highly contagious variant.
