Per ora aprono la EWR-Marrakesh...
United Airlines is launching a new route to Marrakesh, Morocco, starting October 24th, 2024. This will be the first direct flight from the US to the Moroccan city, with three weekly flights departing from Newark. While this is a welcome addition to the airline’s route network, it’s hard to ignore that United will be using older Boeing 767-300ERs for this new service. These planes offer Polaris and Premium Plus cabins, which are generally considered a step down from the carrier’s newer 787s. With the new route, United will become the only American airline to offer nonstop service to Marrakesh, adding another intriguing destination to their already extensive global network. The new route will undoubtedly appeal to travelers seeking out cultural experiences, delicious food, and the beauty of North Africa. However, for frequent fliers looking for the best possible flying experience, a chance to travel on newer, more fuel-efficient planes would likely be welcomed.
United Airlines is adding Marrakesh, Morocco to its flight network starting in October 2024. This is the first direct flight between the United States and Marrakesh. It will be operated three times a week using a Boeing 767-300ER, which includes premium seating options. The new route is a curious move for United. While Marrakesh is gaining popularity, it's not clear if the demand exists for this particular route. It seems like a gamble, especially considering there are already many other airlines flying to Morocco from Europe.
The flights will be on a new route from Newark, New Jersey (EWR) to Marrakesh Menara Airport (RAK). It will be interesting to see how the flight times will work out. The scheduled flight time is 8 hours and 35 minutes eastbound and 8 hours and 5 minutes westbound. I'm curious to see how this translates to actual flight time with potential delays and any weather conditions. I'll be keeping an eye on this new route to see if it’s successful and if it results in lower ticket prices as United claims it will. I'm also interested to see how United will market this route, particularly as they are competing against established carriers already flying to Morocco from Europe. This will be a fascinating development in the airline industry, and I'm eager to see how it plays out.
