A pre-existing codeshare already gives customers of both airlines enhanced connectivity to destinations across each other’s networks.
The codeshare agreement also enables guests to book their entire journey on a single ticket and have their baggage checked through seamlessly to their end destination.
Abdelhamid Addou, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Royal Air Maroc, said: “We are very proud to establish this important partnership with Etihad Airways, which aligns with our ambition to further enhance our connectivity and continue offering our passengers a more optimized and seamless travel experience through our respective hubs.”
