Morocco Becomes Transavia France's Second-Biggest Market for Passengers

Morocco has officially emerged as the second-largest market for Transavia France in terms of passenger volume. Since the beginning of January, over 1.7 million travelers have utilized its routes between the two countries, reflecting a remarkable 21% increase compared to the previous year.

This announcement was made by the low-cost airline, part of the Air France-KLM group, on Thursday, September 17. During the peak summer season alone, Transavia transported nearly 500,000 passengers to Morocco, which is a 20% rise from the summer of 2025. The Paris-Orly to Marrakech route achieved the highest occupancy rate within the Moroccan network at an impressive 97%, outperforming the Paris-Orly to Rabat and Lyon to Marrakech routes. Additionally, it leads in sales with over 84,000 seats sold, followed by Paris-Orly to Agadir with 66,000 seats and Paris-Orly to Oujda with 48,000 seats.

These results solidify Morocco's position as the second-ranking market for Transavia France based on the number of passengers transported. However, the company did not disclose which country ranks first in its report.

Accompanying this growth is a further increase in flight capacity. After revealing its Moroccan program for the winter season last spring, Transavia has announced more than 611,000 seats available between France and Morocco for the winter of 2026-2027, marking an 8% increase from the previous season.

Up to 160 Weekly Flights This Winter

The airline plans to operate up to 160 weekly flights across 25 routes. Notably, the Nantes to Tanger and Lyon to Fès routes, initially offered during the summer season, will continue throughout winter. Significant enhancements will be observed particularly at Paris-Orly. The Casablanca route will see an increase of seven flights per week compared to the previous winter, while the Rabat route will benefit from an additional six weekly frequencies.

Transavia France will thus serve eleven Moroccan airports: Agadir, Casablanca, Dakhla, Errachidia, Essaouira, Fès, Marrakech, Ouarzazate, Oujda, Rabat, and Tanger. Flights will depart from nine French airports, including Paris-Orly, Lyon, Nantes, Marseille, Montpellier, Brest, Rennes, Biarritz, and Deauville.
