Transavia France ramps up Morocco operations: 160 weekly flights this winter, here’s how to benefit

Marc Leonelli·

With over 1.7 million passengers transported between France and Morocco since the start of 2026—a 21% year-on-year increase—the North African kingdom has firmly established itself as Transavia France’s second-largest market, trailing only Spain. This momentum has prompted the low-cost airline to further expand its winter 2026-2027 schedule, with a total of 160 weekly flights across 25 routes serving 11 Moroccan airports from nine French cities. An opportunity for travelers seeking sun without breaking the bank.

Morocco remains a flagship destination for the French low-cost carrier, boasting robust health. The Paris-Orly–Marrakech route, which tops sales with over 84,000 seats sold since January, achieved a record 97% load factor during peak season. This performance has convinced Transavia to add seven additional weekly flights to Casablanca and six to Rabat this winter compared to last year. This growth aligns with the continuation of a partnership renewed in May 2025 with Morocco’s National Tourism Office (ONMT), which already included 14 new routes for winter 2025-2026.

A widened network with new routes

Next winter, Transavia will extend its Nantes–Tanger and Lyon–Fès routes, operated last summer, offering new options to connect northern and eastern Morocco. From Paris-Orly, travelers will also benefit from an additional daily flight to Oujda, enhancing accessibility across the country’s regions. With an overall capacity increase of 8% compared to winter 2025-2026, the airline is optimizing its network to attract an even broader clientele, from families to business travelers.

“Morocco holds a special place in Transavia France’s network, and this year’s results confirm the destination’s appeal to our customers,” says Julien Mallard, Deputy CEO Commercial at the French low-cost airline. This sentiment is backed by the numbers: nearly 500,000 passengers traveled to Morocco with Transavia during summer 2026, a 20% increase from summer 2025. This trend is expected to continue, especially as the airline has tailored its offering to meet traveler expectations with competitive fares and increased flight frequency.

How to book and secure the best fares

To take advantage of these new routes, travelers can now check Transavia France’s website or use its mobile app. The airline regularly offers promotions on its Morocco flights, particularly for early bookings. Members of the Transavia Club loyalty program enjoy exclusive perks, such as additional discounts or special offers on checked baggage.

Booking early is recommended to secure the best fares, especially for departure dates around school holidays or long weekends. Transavia emphasizes transparent pricing with no hidden fees and offers flexible options for passengers looking to modify or cancel their reservations, subject to contractual terms.

Key advantages that set Transavia apart

Transavia is leveraging several strengths to attract travelers. First, its high flight frequency allows passengers to choose the most convenient departure times, whether for a long weekend or an extended stay. Second, enhanced accessibility: with flights departing from nine French airports, the airline makes it easier to travel from cities like Nantes, Lyon, Lille, and even Brest, avoiding long trips to reach Paris.

Finally, a simplified travel experience: Transavia offers onboard services tailored to passenger needs, with a clear and no-frills approach. Checked baggage can be added to bookings, and the airline highlights a generous carry-on policy, allowing each passenger to bring an additional bag free of charge beyond their personal item.

For travelers seeking sunny, budget-friendly destinations, Morocco is an ideal alternative. With mild winter temperatures, diverse landscapes ranging from Dakhla’s beaches to the Atlas Mountains, and a rich culture, the country delivers a complete experience. Transavia, with its expanded network and attractive fares, makes this destination even more accessible.

A strategic choice for winter 2026-2027

By doubling down on Morocco, Transavia France is reinforcing its strategy of focusing on key destinations while meeting growing demand for short, frequent trips. Winter 2026-2027 looks set to be a pivotal period for the airline, with an enhanced offering and competitive fares. Travelers would be wise to seize this opportunity to plan their next getaways—whether for a family escape, a trip with friends, or even a business trip.

Moroccan airports to explore this winter

Beyond Marrakech, Agadir, and Casablanca, Transavia also serves lesser-known but equally attractive cities. Oujda, for example, provides privileged access to the Oriental region, with its desert landscapes and historical sites. Tangier, meanwhile, charms visitors with its Mediterranean vibe and proximity to Europe. Finally, Dakhla appeals to water sports enthusiasts and vast sandy expanses, perfect for outdoor getaways.

Going further: practical tips

Before booking, it’s useful to know Morocco’s entry requirements. French travelers must present a valid passport or national ID card, depending on the case. Regarding baggage, Transavia offers flexible options, including the ability to add checked luggage to your booking or travel light with just a carry-on. For travelers with children, the airline highlights discounted fares for children under 12, as well as onboard services tailored to families.

Finally, to make the most of your stay, it’s advisable to check the weather conditions based on the regions you plan to visit. While Marrakech and Agadir enjoy mild winter climates, other cities like Dakhla can be cooler, especially in the evenings. Good preparation will ensure a smooth trip and a memorable experience.
