Message for U.S. Citizens: Special Flights Leaving Marrakech on Friday to the United States (March 20, 2020)

We recognize this has been a challenging period for many of our fellow Americans, particularly those of you seeking to depart Morocco.

The Department of State and the U.S. Mission to Morocco have arranged special chartered flights for U.S. citizens and U.S. Lawful Permanent Residents departing Marrakech International Airport on Friday, March 20, 2020, beginning at 11:30 am.  These flights will include a Marrakech to London Heathrow leg and an onward connecting flight to one of 10 cities in the USA served by British Airways.  The $1485 cost of these one-way tickets will include the flight to London AND to one of the 10 U.S. destinations below:

Miami (MIA), Los Angeles (LAX), Newark (EWR), Boston (BOS), Washington, DC Dulles (IAD), Chicago (ORD), New York City (JFK), Seattle (SEA), San Francisco (SFO), and Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW)

All passengers will need to reimburse the U.S. Government for the flight, and a promissory note for approximately $1485 which must be signed before boarding.  No cash or credit card payments will be accepted.  You will be responsible for any arrangements or costs (lodging, onward destination or local transportation, etc.) beyond your initial destination in the USA.   Exact departure time and routing are subject to change.
