Morocco’s flag carrier Royal air Maroc (RAM) announced on Monday the reintroduction of the direct Casablanca – Beijing air route, as part of the reinforcement of its international network.
Starting January 20, 2025, RAM will relaunch the direct air route, which was launched in January 2020 then suspended a few weeks later due to the COVID-19 crisis, with three flights per week, the company said in a press release.
Flights departing from Casablanca will be operated on Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays at 3:15 PM (local time), landing the next day at Beijing International Airport at 10:50 AM (local time), the same source stated, adding that departures from Beijing will be operated on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays at 12:50 PM (local time) to arrive in Casablanca at 8:15 PM (local time).
Furthermore, the flights will be operated by “Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner” aircraft with a 302 seats’ capacity, including 26 in Business Class.
“We are thrilled to resume the first direct route linking Morocco and China. The Casablanca-Beijing route is mainly dedicated to the development of Moroccan tourism, since 80% of the traffic on this route will be made up of foreign tourists,” announced Hamid Addou, RAM’s Chairman and CEO, quoted in the press release.
