Morocco's flag carrier Royal Air Maroc expands 787 fleet

Boeing has received orders for four 787-9 Dreamliners – valued at US$1.1bn at list prices – that will enable Royal Air Maroc to expand international service. The orders, previously listed as unidentified on Boeing’s Orders & Deliveries website, include two 787s purchased in December 2016 and two purchased this month. Royal Air Maroc, which has already taken delivery of five 787-8s, will grow its fleet of fuel-efficient 787s to a total of nine airplanes. Royal Air Maroc flies 787s on international routes from Casablanca to North America, South America, the Middle East and Europe, and with the additional airplanes plans to expand service to these areas.
