Casablanca - Post Report Question and Answers

What is your home city/country? How long is the trip to post from there, with what connections? How easy/difficult is it to travel to this city/country?

It is very easy to travel to and from Morocco, and there are more and more direct flights to the U.S. especially with new ones from Marrakesh. For us, it takes two flights to get home in the Mountain West of the U.S. usually with a stop in Paris or Montreal. The arrive time is 14hrs with the one stop. However, you can fly direct from Casablanca to DC in fewer than 8 hrs. - Mar 2026

NYC- easy direct flight to JFK from Casablanca, about 6 hours. Air France through Paris is nicer, but connections can be tricky to make. - Jun 2012


Considering the fact that Morocco is in Africa, you can't ask for a better commute to the US.There is a direct non-stop flight to NY JFK from Casablanca almost every day of the week. The flight takes off from JFK around 7 pm and lands in Casa the next morning. It couldn't be any easier. I've been back to the US 4 times in my tour and have never done anything but the NY JFK flight. Some people go through Paris, but that airport presents its own challenges. - Apr 2010
