The extra space also makes it more comfortable to enjoy the meal served on board, watch a movie on the in-flight entertainment system, chat with your seatmate without being quite so close, or even squeeze past the adjacent seat to reach the restroom if you&#8217;re seated in a middle or window seat.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/royal-air-maroc-787-9-dreamliner-boeing_widelg.jpg\" alt=\"Royal Air Maroc offers four weekly departures from S\u00e3o Paulo\" class=\"wp-image-412247\" style=\"width:367px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/royal-air-maroc-787-9-dreamliner-boeing_widelg.jpg 800w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/royal-air-maroc-787-9-dreamliner-boeing_widelg-600x375.jpg 600w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/royal-air-maroc-787-9-dreamliner-boeing_widelg-150x94.jpg 150w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/royal-air-maroc-787-9-dreamliner-boeing_widelg-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/royal-air-maroc-787-9-dreamliner-boeing_widelg-450x281.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Royal Air Maroc offers four weekly departures from S\u00e3o Paulo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Royal Air Maroc offers the traditional Business and Economy cabins on its Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. Within Economy, however, it also provides premium seats located in the first rows of the cabin. According to the airline\u2019s communications team in Brazil, there are 28 of these seats in total, spread across four rows \u2014 5, 6, 7 and 8 \u2014 in a 2-3-2 configuration, with two seats on each side of the aircraft and three in the center section between the aisles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flight from S\u00e3o Paulo to Casablanca is not among the longest direct routes between Brazil and the Arab world (flights to the United Arab Emirates take around 15 hours). The journey lasts about nine hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On a Royal Air Maroc flight in May, two meals were served during the trip\u2014a hot meal and a light snack. The aircraft is quiet, the cabin air is less dry than on older planes, and the crew frequently freshens the cabin with a pleasant fragrance. The windows are also generously sized, making it easy to enjoy the view outside<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/baba-1024x640.jpeg\" alt=\"Othman Baba: Announcement of additional frequencies\" class=\"wp-image-412250\" style=\"width:364px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/baba-1024x640.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/baba-600x375.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/baba-150x94.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/baba-768x480.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/baba-1536x960.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/baba-2048x1280.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/baba-450x281.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/anba.com.br\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/baba-1200x750.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Othman Baba: Announcement of additional frequencies<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>With its Dreamliners on the route and other initiatives, Royal Air Maroc has been showing growing interest in Brazilian travelers. After resuming direct Casablanca\u2013S\u00e3o Paulo flights in late 2024, following a suspension in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the airline has gradually increased the route\u2019s frequency. Company materials released recently describe Brazil as its largest market outside Africa and indicate plans to expand the service to daily flights by 2028.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The route was relaunched with three weekly flights. After about a year of operations, the airline increased the frequency to four flights per week and has already announced a fifth weekly service starting in November or December 2026. Rio de Janeiro is also set to gain direct flights to Casablanca in 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBrazil has established itself as a strategic market for Royal Air Maroc, supported by strong operational results and consistent demand,\u201d said Royal Air Maroc\u2019s Regional Director for South America, Othman Baba, in materials released alongside the announcement of the fifth weekly frequency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read the other stories in the Morocco tourism series below:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-anba-news-agency wp-block-embed-anba-news-agency\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"PlX0hr1NM9\"><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/life-in-moroccos-blue-city\/\">Life in Morocco\u2019s Blue City<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute;
