Arkia Resumes Direct Flights from Tel Aviv to Marrakech After Three Years
Arkia Airlines announced it will resume direct flights from Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion Airport to Marrakech, Morocco, starting August 24, 2026, after a three-year hiatus caused by regional conflict. The flights will operate twice weekly on Mondays and Wednesdays using Airbus A320 aircraft, reconnecting Israeli travelers with one of North Africa's popular tourist destinations.
The airline stated that the route's reinstatement followed extensive coordination with aviation and security authorities. Ticket prices will start at $329 one way, subject to availability and booking time. Arkia also reminded passengers holding Israeli passports that they must obtain a visa in advance to enter Morocco and advised completing this process well before the flight date.
This move is expected to expand travel options for Israelis seeking to visit Morocco, marking a significant step in restoring direct air links between the two countries after a prolonged suspension due to the war.
