Air Arabia Maroc is set to introduce a new route between Manchester and Morocco this winter.

From October, the low-cost carrier will fly twice weekly between the North West and Agadir, a city and beach resort located on the southern Atlantic coast of Morocco.

Air Arabia Maroc confirmed it will operate the service every Thursday and Sunday with an Airbus A320.

Adel Al Ali, Air Arabia’s group chief exec, said: “We look forward to connecting Manchester with Agadir and we are confident that this step will further cater to the needs of our growing customer base.

“Agadir offers a great tourism experience year around with its unique beaches, mountains, golf resorts and excellent dining options.”

The deal will make Manchester the only UK airport outside London served by the airline.

Stephen Turner, the airport’s commercial director, commented: “It’s great news that Air Arabia Maroc will start flights to Agadir from Manchester this winter.

“Agadir is a great beach resort that also offers fantastic access to the Atlas Mountains.“

He added: “This route will provide the 22m people in our catchment area with further choice on how to reach this exciting destination.“
