British Airways to resume flights as Morocco reopens

The country will admit UK visitors who are fully vaccinated, but stipulates a PCR test before departure.

BA flights to Marrakech resume on Thursday, while those from Gatwick will resume on 31 March. Initial Heathrow frequencies are five times a week.

Lead-in fares are from £59 return minus a checked bag.

The FCDO advises that UK travellers must present a valid vaccine pass, with the second dose having taken place at least two weeks before travel, as well as proof of a negative PCR test result, with the sample having been taken within 48 hours of boarding.

It adds: “Children under the age of six are exempt from the pre-travel PCR test requirement, and children under the age of 18 are exempt from the requirement to present a vaccine pass.”

All passengers will face an antigen test on arrival.
