Royal Air Maroc (RAM) is strengthening its fleet with the addition of two Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, set to be delivered on May 31 and June 2, 2025, according to a report by Le360.

According to northafricapost, the order is part of the national carrier’s broader strategy to expand and modernize its operations amid growing demand for air travel.

These deliveries are part of a nine-aircraft order placed in 2023, aimed at enhancing RAM’s medium-haul capabilities, particularly on routes linking Morocco with Europe and sub-Saharan Africa.

The new jets will support the airline’s ambitions under the 2023–2037 strategic roadmap, which targets a fourfold increase in fleet size, from 50 to 200 aircraft.

A third aircraft is currently in final assembly at Boeing’s facilities, with the remaining six expected to be delivered in the second half of 2025, the news outlet reported citing unnamed sources.

RAM’s fleet expansion aligns with Morocco’s broader goal of positioning Casablanca as a premier aviation hub connecting Africa, Europe, and the Americas.
