As of December 2024, Royal Air Maroc (RAM) introduced a new high-density seating configuration for its Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner fleet. This aircraft, with a total capacity of 320 seats (J16Y304), represents a significant step in RAM̢۪s strategy to meet growing demand on popular international routes.
In the first quarter of 2025, the airline will deploy this 320-seater Dreamliner on select routes from its hub in Casablanca, Morocco, to destinations across Africa, Europe, and North America. The move comes as Royal Air Maroc seeks to optimize capacity and improve efficiency during peak travel seasons.
The high-density Dreamliner will operate on the following routes during the first quarter of 2025 and continue on select dates during the Northern Summer season (March 30 to October 25, 2025):
For routes like Toronto and Sao Paulo, the introduction of the 320-seater 787-9 marks a notable capacity increase, as these routes previously utilized the smaller Boeing 787-8.
The high-density configuration also benefits shorter-haul routes such as Paris Orly, Istanbul, and Dakar, where frequency and efficiency are critical to meeting competitive market demands.
This strategic move comes at a time of increased global travel demand, particularly in emerging markets. As Royal Air Maroc continues to expand its fleet and network, the airline is well-poised to capture market opportunities while delivering a world-class travel experience.
