The French Embassy in Rabat announced two upcoming repatriation cruises, in cooperation with Moroccan authorities, in order to allow French, European, and permanent residents of France traveling in a vehicle registered in Europe, to return home.
The French embassy said that the first trip will depart this Wednesday, January 19, and the second trip will take place on Monday, January 24, from the port of Tangiers Med, north of Morocco, to the port of Marseille in France.
The embassy stated that the French authorities are not responsible, in any way, for the commercial and pricing policy of private companies that will make the two trips.
Moroccan authorities had decided to extend the suspension of commercial flights to and from Morocco until January 31, but reports citing the scientific committee predict the closure will not be extended.
In the meantime, some Moroccans remain stranded in countries across Asia and Europe, as repatriation flights remain scarce.
Government spokesperson, Moustapha Baitas had said the government needs to “create separate health protocols depending on the country of departure,” due to a difference in domestic epidemiological situations, which is behind the slow repatriation process.
