Royal Air Maroc, Mauritania Airlines Sign Strategic Partnership
Casablanca – Royal Air Maroc and Mauritania Airlines signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) and a “free flow” code-share agreement for the direct Casablanca-Nouakchott air route on Friday in Casablanca.
This strategic agreement is part of the ongoing efforts of both airlines to enhance their customers’ experience, as it will allow passengers to benefit from several advantages that make their travel journey smoother, simpler, and more comfortable, according to a joint press release.
“This strategic partnership is the first of its kind between Royal Air Maroc and Mauritania Airlines. It will provide customers of both airlines with an improved customer experience and a quality product. It will also give them access to a wide range of destinations across our respective networks,” said the CEO of Royal Air Maroc, Hamid Addou.
“This agreement also reflects our shared commitment to strengthening exchanges between Morocco and Mauritania and reinforcing our African presence. It marks an important step in our ambition to consolidate our position in Africa, while offering an exceptional experience to our passengers,” he added.
For his part, Mauritania Airlines’ CEO, Ahmed Salem Mohamed Vall Ammi, expressed pride in announcing a major advancement in cooperation with Royal Air Maroc through the establishment of a codeshare agreement.
“This strategic agreement not only strengthens travel opportunities between the Islamic Republic of Mauritania and the Kingdom of Morocco, but also allows us to offer our passengers easier access to a broader network of destinations, with more flexibility and a harmonized travel experience,” he said.
He further noted that, thanks to this partnership, Mauritania Airlines and Royal Air Maroc reaffirm their mutual commitment to enhancing connectivity between their markets and offering ever more efficient travel solutions.
He also emphasized that this collaboration opens new horizons for Mauritania Airlines in developing its network and meeting customer expectations by providing optimized service and smooth connections between the two airlines.
The agreement will strengthen links between the two countries, create connections to other routes, and expand destinations, while offering greater comfort to passengers.
The strategic Casablanca-Nouakchott route will thus be reinforced by both airlines. Royal Air Maroc, which currently operates seven direct frequencies per week on this route, will increase them to nine weekly frequencies. On its part, Mauritania Airlines will reach nine weekly frequencies on the direct Nouakchott-Casablanca route, an increase of three weekly frequencies.
Furthermore, both airlines will include four additional routes in the codeshare partnership to expand connectivity options. Mauritania Airlines’ customers will have access to continuation flights through Royal Air Maroc’s Casablanca hub to four major cities: Madrid, Dubai, Paris, and Luanda.
