Royal Air Maroc Delays Resumption of Central African Flights
Royal Air Maroc has announced an extension of the suspension of numerous flight routes to Central Africa, impacting essential connections between Casablanca and several significant destinations including Kinshasa, Brazzaville, Douala, Bangui, and Yaoundé. Initially slated to resume operations, these flights will now not recommence until at least September 2026, as reported by the airline. This decision reflects ongoing challenges faced by the airline in managing its flight schedules amid fluctuating demand and operational constraints.
According to AeroRoutes, the revised flight schedule indicates that several routes will remain suspended throughout August, with tentative resumptions planned between September 1 and September 6, 2026. The Casablanca-Douala-Bangui-Casablanca route is expected to recommence on September 1, while flights connecting Brazzaville and Kinshasa, as well as those between Yaoundé and Douala, are anticipated to resume on September 2 at the earliest.
Uncertain Flight Resumption Dates
However, it is essential for travelers to note that the direct flight from Casablanca to Kinshasa is not expected to restart until September 6. Furthermore, routes including Casablanca-Douala-Yaoundé-Casablanca and Casablanca-Kinshasa-Brazzaville-Casablanca are provisionally scheduled for restart on September 4. These dates are subject to change, and as such, passengers are advised to verify their reservations and consult the updated schedule from Royal Air Maroc prior to their travel. The airline remains vigilant regarding the evolving operational landscape and is prepared to make further adjustments as necessary.
