Morocco plans $4.23 billion airport overhaul over 2025-2030

Morocco will spend 38 billion dirhams, or 4.32 billion dollars, to expand and modernize its airports in anticipation of a growth in tourist arrivals ahead of the 2030 World Cup.

The money will be spent on the airports of Casablanca, Marrakesh, Agadir, Tangier, and Fez.

The investment is part of a deal between the government and the national airports authority (ONDA)

Airport expansion will cost 25 billion dirhams, while modernization, maintenance and land acquisition will require 13 billion dirhams.

The agreement aims to foster Morocco’s position as a regional platform and an international air hub, head of the government’s office said in a statement.

“It also contributes to equipping the Kingdom with modern and efficient infrastructure that supports economic growth, territorial integration, and social inclusion,” the statement added.
