This sure is an exciting time for Royal Air Maroc. Just last week it was announced that Royal Air Maroc will be joining oneworld in mid-2020, making them the first airline in over five years to fully join the alliance.

I think you should wait until Royal Air Maroc actually joined oneworld before reviewing it again.
Speaking of new planes, how did you not mention anything about Etihad taking delivery of their first 787-10 last month. I didn’t even find out until today because addle hardly anyone seems to be reporting on it?!
Will they be putting these seats on the B787-8 as well? Or are they keeping the current configuration?
@ Kush -- It's my understanding that these will just be on the 787-9s. Though who knows what happens in the future.
@ Scott -- Perhaps I should have written about it, but I thought it was pretty unremarkable news since it has the same product as other two class 787s. I would have covered it if they had a new business class seat or something else, but...
Any idea which route and when these will appear? I am flying JFK > CMN in February in business class.
Somehow this interior design and color scheme is even uglier than the Mainland Chinese carriers with the same layout.
You said that your experences with Royal Air Maroc have been quite good.

I'm wondering the same thing. Flying JFK-CMN in September of 2019 and wondering if these planes/configurations will be in service??
@Johnny: Yep, they will

@Leeza: That's great news, thank you! I assume you pulled those from future flights on ExpertFlyer? Flightaware currently lists AT203 as a 787-8 for the moment, but I assume E0/789 is referring to the new bird. Does that mean you can tell when they'll be phased in?
