Israir expands Morocco service with two weekly Marrakesh flights, plans Casablanca route

Under the planned schedule, passengers could, for example, fly from Israel to Marrakesh and return from Casablanca without traveling back to their original arrival city.

Israir Airlines is expanding its operations in Morocco, with two weekly direct flights to Marrakesh planned from early November and a request submitted to operate a weekly direct flight to Casablanca, the Israeli carrier said on Sunday.

The planned Marrakesh service will run from early November through the beginning of January, according to the airline. The proposed Casablanca flight is expected to begin in early November as well, subject to receiving the necessary approvals.

Adding Casablanca would give Israir passengers a choice between two Moroccan destinations and allow travelers to build itineraries that begin in one city and end in the other.

Under the planned schedule, passengers could, for example, fly from Israel to Marrakesh and return from Casablanca without traveling back to their original arrival city.

Add'l routes aim to provide greater flexibility for travelers 

Israir said the combination would provide greater flexibility for independent travelers as well as those taking longer or organized trips.

The schedule is intended to accommodate trips ranging from short stays to vacations of nine or 12 nights, the company said.

“Israir is working to expand its operations in Morocco and offer its customers more flexible options for planning their vacations. Alongside the two weekly flights to Marrakesh, we have submitted a request to operate a weekly flight to Casablanca. The combination of the two destinations will allow passengers to begin their trip in one city and end it in another, and enjoy a variety of itineraries and different lengths of stay,” Israir said.
