This morning I flew Royal Air Maroc from Doha to Casablanca, a flight that was operated by one of their new 787 aircraft. This flight was ~7 hours and covered 3,500 miles, so is roughly the same distance as a London to New York flight, as a point of comparison. As I wrote about earlier,…

That's the best part of the soft product on internationAL product.
Wow. I really blew this prediction as I was expecting the AT flights to be borderline wretched.
This is where Ben's quest to try some of the more unique business class products is paying off. Royal Air Maroc has a lousy reputation amongst my colleagues; having another, more positive perspective is very beneficial.
@Imperator Likewise. My colleagues advise me to avoid RAM like the plague (horror stories of 12+ hour delays...), but this report is giving me pause. Might have to check them out. To some places in sub-Saharan Africa, flying RAM is often the cheapest option by far.
Wow...The food looks great. Did you spend most of that 7 hour flight eating? Hope you were able to catch some Z's!! The RTW journey continues...
For a time last year I flew frequently between London and Casa, and I found RAM great every time. However, they did do weird things like unplanned stops in Marrakech on the way to Ourzazate, and some colleagues had issues with missing bags, but i never had a problem with them, and I agree that the cabin crew were genuinely charming and real, even if the ground service can be a bit haphazard. 4* sounds about right (and better than I initially expected)
The Moroccan people are extremely warm and hospitable so no surprise it showed on your flight.
That said the one flight I took w them many years ago dahkla to casa was horrendous.
I know it's a quick turnaround for you but if you ever have the time, chefchaoun and Marrakech are incredible.
We flew Royal Air Moroc in coach round trip JFK-Casablanca about 10 years ago (was supposed to be business class, but surprise! Aircraft swap for a plane with NO big class. Um, row 4, really?!?!). In each case, I was wedged next to someone obese who snored the whole way / children screaming as if they were being tortured. Probably not the airlines fault (except the equipment swap, which was clearly baiting and switching), but 2 of the worst flights I can recall. Just awful, would never fly them again. I fly a lot for work, and the fact that these flights stick out as so awful should be telling.
The country of Morocco was lovely (especially Fez and the Sahara desert), but the airline was a must miss.
Really glad to have these reports.
The seats are almost as if they think it'll be easier to get out of the window seat if you are elevated.
Wonder if this will end like the China Eastern ordeal -- RAM will e-mail to apologize for the thin blanket and providing you too much food.
