Royal Air Maroc (RAM) has announced plans to operate Boeing 767-300ER aircraft on seven of its 10 weekly Casablanca-Brussels passenger flights during the peak summer season.
Since RAM only has one Boeing 767, which is actually a freighter, it is expected that the airline will wet-lease the necessary equipment from another operator.
The scheduled flights are set to run from June 24th to September 3rd, covering a total of 144 roundtrip flights. The Boaing 767, configured with 236 seats (224 in economy and 12 in business), will supplement RAM’s usual aircraft, the 737-800, on the 2,182 km route.
The increased seating capacity and longer turnaround time requirement have resulted in an extended turn time in Belgium, from one hour until July 23rd to 1 hour and 40 minutes from July 24th.
