Inauguration of Direct Strasbourg-Marrakech Air Route
On Sunday, May 3, 2026, a significant advancement in travel connectivity was realized with the launch of a new direct flight route operated by EasyJet, linking Strasbourg-Entzheim Airport to Marrakech Menara Airport. This new service will provide two weekly flights, scheduled for Thursdays and Sundays, offering travelers a much-needed direct connection that previously relied on connecting flights through various airport hubs.
The introduction of this route is poised to enhance travel opportunities for both business and leisure travelers, as well as those visiting family and friends in the diaspora. Gilles Telliers, the president of Strasbourg Entzheim International Airport, expressed enthusiasm over the successful inaugural flight, which reported full occupancy for both the outbound and return journeys aboard a 157-seat Airbus A319. He stated, “We are very pleased to welcome this new route to Morocco, particularly to Marrakech, which will benefit both tourists and business travelers.”
This direct flight route is particularly timely, as there has been a growing demand for improved connectivity between these two metropolitan areas. It aims to simplify travel for families, students, business professionals, and tourists alike, thereby fostering greater exchange and interaction between the regions. EasyJet has ambitious plans to expand its network within Morocco, targeting a total of 19 routes from seven French airports by the end of 2026, further solidifying its commitment to enhancing travel options for passengers.
