With the reopening of the Moroccan borders, Transavia is revising its flight schedule to cope with the surge in demand that should be generated by the resumption of travel between France and the Kingdom, which has been blocked since the end of November.

Transavia's flight schedule picks up again in Morocco as borders reopen

After months of closure, the Morocco is once again available to business travellers from 7 February. The reopening has been eagerly awaited, particularly by the French market, which should see demand for the Franco-Moroccan route soar. Transavia intends to adjust its sails accordingly. The company is even increasing its offer by 40% compared with 2019. This summer, nearly 600,000 seats will be available on this route, out of a total of 20. Morocco will then be the Transavia's second largest market.

We are in the starting blocks to boost the long-awaited recovery of this historic and key destination for our company.

"underlined Nicolas HéninExecutive Vice President Sales and Marketing for Transavia France. " We were able to share with our partners at the ONMT our very high objectives for Morocco this summer, with strong growth in seats. We are in the starting blocks to boost the long-awaited recovery of this historic and key destination for our airline. ".

Five French airports are involved in this relaunch: Paris-Orly, Nantes-Atlantique, Lyon-Saint-Exupéry, Montpellier-Méditerranée and Bastia. Transavia will fly to a total of ten Moroccan destinations: Agadir, Marrakech, Essaouira, Casablanca, Rabat, Fez, Tangiers, Nador, Oujda and Ouarzazate.

The regulatory context has even prompted the airline to review its timetable and bring forward some route reopenings. This is notably the case for the Lyon-Casablanca flight, which was due to return on 1 May, but which is finally resuming service from 12 February.
