Hello from Munich! After flying from Miami to Casablanca on Royal Air Maroc's new Boeing 787-9, I connected to Munich on one of their 737s. I booked this itinerary for just 44,000 Etihad Guest miles one-way in business class, which I'd consider to be an excellent deal. In this post I wanted to share my…

On a narrow body plane, they're definitely preferable to flying on a European airline to and from Europe in business class.
I honestly thought that the sticker on the bulkhead in the title pic meant that they had wifi. I wonder how many people get disappointed when they try to connect...
I flew Lufthansa Business class from Munich to Tunis and it was economy seat with a nice meal so this is fantastic compared to that. However be careful what plane you get with RAM because their Airbus short haul international is like the worst version of Lufthansa's Business class- regular economy seats and terrible plane and service and food. So depending on what plane you may or may be better off on a European airline. Thanks for the info re the other plane options!!!
The departure at CMN is definitely a disaster. Do they really have to check my passport for seven times??
RAM is definitely much better than any of the main European carriers. In terms of seating they are similar to Aeroflot and Turkish. Personally, I would see a little advantage of Turkish when it comes to food, at as long as it’s Do&Co catering (but there are rumors TK is going to change catering ...)
Traveled from Madrid thru casablanca to Nairobi and it was ectic..I didnt like the ignorance of the cabin crew members.
I had to travel for more than 9 hours with my 10 months baby on my thighs because i was given a seat in between others,of which they could exchange with someone from the front seats so i could lie the baby in the aircraft baby bed.
I wont recommend it at all.
Hi Ben, could you please help me and give some infos regarding arrival procedures and expereience in CMN airport? I will be arriving with my mom (75 years old). Have you seen the bus stop for hotel shuttles at arrivals? Where is it situated?
Thanks for your help in advance!

That bar in the lounge look bare bones. They seem to be lacking... Wont be enough to handle the type of scum that DEBIT hates (white, male, republican)...
Royal Air Maroc 737-800 was the only time I experienced an aborted takeoff. It was on a domestic flight, Casablanca to Marrakech, back in 2008. The plane started down the runway, then came to a stop; the pilots said that some indicator lights came on, and a moment later they said the issue was fixed, taxied back to the start of the runway, and took off without issue.
The other weird thing about that flight was that at the time Morocco did not have the policy of clearing immigration and customs at the first point of arrival. So after landing in Casa from JFK we were directed to domestic connections without passing through immigration and customs. When we arrived in Marrakech the entire mix of domestic and international passengers were funneled through the same checkpoints, where I passed immigration; I'm not sure what they did with the domestic passengers, or how they could tell who was domestic and who was international.
