Delta Air Lines will launch its first direct flight between Atlanta and Marrakech in October 2025, significantly expanding air connectivity between Morocco and the United States, the Moroccan National Tourism Office (ONMT) announced.
It is the second direct route between the two countries added in two years, following United’s new New York-Marrakech route.
ONMT said the move aligns with its strategy to position Morocco as a leading tourist destination in the US market.
Atlanta, home to the world’s busiest airport, serves as a key hub connecting over 125 American cities. Delta, the oldest US airline still in operation, is among the world’s most recognized carriers.
Delta’s first direct flight to Morocco and North Africa, the new partnership of ONMT and Delta is expected to increase tourist flow to Morocco, boosting the country’s tourism sector and economic ties with the US.
ONMT’s marketing efforts in the US have connected Marrakech with three major North American hubs: Montreal via Air Transat, New York via United Airlines, and now Atlanta via Delta.
Royal Air Maroc also operates direct flights from New York, Washington, and Miami to Casablanca.
The Atlanta-Marrakech service will run three times a week on Boeing 767-400 aircraft with 238 seats.
In 2024, 402,377 American tourists visited Morocco, a 7% increase from 2023. In January 2025 alone, US arrivals rose 31% over last year to 26,777. Morocco aims to attract one million American tourists annually in the long term.
ONMT sees the new route as a key step in its “Morocco, Kingdom of Light” campaign to strengthen the country’s position among top global travel destinations.
