DALLAS — Royal Air Maroc (AT) is set to resume its nonstop route from its base at Mohammed V International Airport (CMN) in Casablanca, Morocco, to São Paulo/Guarulhos International Airport (GRU) starting December 7, 2024.
The Moroccan Carrier says the relaunched route will cater to the increasing demand from businesspeople, tourists, and the African diaspora, marking AT's return to Latin America.
Further, the service will bolster the Moroccan government's efforts to expand the country's tourism sector and enhance connectivity to Morocco in anticipation of the 2030 FIFA World Cup, which will be hosted by Spain, Portugal, and Morocco.
Route Schedule
The airline will operate three weekly flights in what is its longest nonstop and second-longest scheduled Africa-to-South America route, using the Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft. The route was suspended due to the Pandemic back in March 2020.
Departures from CMN are scheduled for Mondays, Thursdays, and Saturdays at 16:40 (local time), with arrivals in GRU at 22:20 (local time). Return flights from GRU will leave on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays at 00:20 (local time), landing in CMN at 13:15.
