Flights✈️
Travellers from Europe
We find it strange too, but unfortunately, there are no direct flights from the Netherlands to Rabat. The only way to get to Rabat from the Netherlands is via another city in Morocco.
There are several airlines offering direct flights from Amsterdam (Schiphol Airport (AMS)) to Casablanca (Mohammed V Airport (CMN)) and alternatively Fez-Saïss (Airport (FEZ)), Tangier (Ibn Battouta Airport (TNG)) and Marrakech (Menara Airport (RAK)). From there you can take local transportation to go to Rabat (see next paragraph).
If you prefer to fly directly to Rabat (Rabat-Salé Airport (RBA)) you can do so from Brussels (International Airport (BRU) or South Charleroi Airport (CRL), Düsseldorf (Weeze Airport (NRN)) or Paris (Orly Airport (ORY) or Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG)).
Travelers from North America
You can fly with a layover in European hubs like Amsterdam, Brussels, Düsseldorf, Paris, Madrid, or Casablanca before reaching Rabat (see above).
