Ryanair inaugurates new Madrid-Dakhla route

The low-cost airline Ryanair launched its new air route between Madrid and Dakhla on Wednesday, enhancing thus air connectivity between Morocco and Spain.

Ryanair will service two weekly flights, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, under a memorandum of understanding signed with the Moroccan National Tourist Office (ONMT).

With this launch, Ryanair becomes the fourth partner of the ONMT to establish a direct international route to Dakhla, following Royal Air Maroc (RAM), Binter Canarias, and Transavia.

A ceremony, attended by several local officials and tourism sector stakeholders, marked the inaugural flight.

Several Moroccan expatriates rejoiced to have a chance to visit Dakhla, thanks to the new air route, and praised the warm welcome they received upon arrival.

Another flight linking Dakhla to Lanzarote in the Canary Islands twice a week will also be launched this month.

These new air routes will double the airport’s current international capacity, bringing the total offering to nearly 47,000 seats. They will also make Spain the leading source market for flights to Dakhla, ahead of France.
