On Thursday, July 24, 2025, in Rabat, Prime Minister Aziz Akhannouch presided over the signing ceremony of an investment protocol agreement between the government and the National Airports Office, covering the period from 2025 to 2030, with a financial envelope of 38 billion dirhams.
The agreement aims to qualify and expand the infrastructure of major airports, including Marrakech, Agadir, Tangier, and Fez, in addition to constructing a new terminal and a hub at Mohammed V International Airport in Casablanca, along with a new runway at a cost of 25 billion dirhams. Additionally, 13 billion dirhams have been allocated for maintenance, modernization, and acquiring necessary properties to ensure network flexibility and enhance its capacity over the long term.
The Prime Minister emphasized that this strategic project is part of a comprehensive vision to qualify the aviation sector in alignment with royal directives and to keep pace with the economic and social transformations taking place in Morocco, particularly in anticipation of major events like the 2030 World Cup, and to strengthen the Kingdom’s position as a regional and international aviation center.
The agreement will enable the launch of a new generation of quality public services, focusing on innovation and improving the travel experience, as part of the National Airports Office’s “Airports 2030” strategy, designed to accommodate the growth of air traffic and support the development plan of Royal Air Maroc, alongside strengthening air connectivity and serving vital sectors such as tourism.
The signing ceremony was attended by the Minister of Tourism, Handicrafts, and Social Economy, the Minister of Transport and Logistics, the Minister Delegate for Budget, the Director General of the National Agency for the Management of Public Contributions, and the Director General of the National Airports Office.
