(PRAGUE) Eurowings will launch new direct flights between Prague and Marrakech on November 8, 2025, restoring a nonstop link between the Czech capital and Morocco after several years without service. The Lufthansa Group subsidiary will operate the route twice a week during the winter timetable, aiming to cut travel time, boost tourism, and give travelers an easier way to move between Central Europe and North Africa. Václav Havel Airport Prague (PRG) and Marrakech Menara Airport (RAK) confirmed the seasonal schedule, which runs through the end of March 2026.
The airline’s plan targets winter demand. Flights run twice weekly until late March, with a scheduled pause from January 3 to February 15, 2026. Eurowings said the Prague–Marrakech link answers growing interest from leisure travelers and small business owners seeking faster trips without connections through hubs like Frankfurt or Paris.
Flight times and frequency
- Days of operation: Thursdays and one weekend day (Saturday or Sunday, depending on the week)
- Frequency: Twice weekly, with a mid-season pause January 3–February 15, 2026
- Aircraft: Airbus A320 with 180 seats
- Approximate flight time: about 4.5 hours to Morocco, slightly shorter on the return
Typical weekly timings:
– Thursday schedule
– Depart Prague: 11:20 a.m.
– Arrive Marrakech: 3:50 p.m.
– Return departs Marrakech: 4:40 p.m.
– Return arrives Prague: 9:00 p.m.
– Weekend schedule (Saturday or Sunday)
– Depart Prague: 8:35 p.m.
– Arrive Marrakech: just after midnight
– Return departs Marrakech: 1:55 a.m.
– Return arrives Prague: 6:15 a.m.
Airport managers and tourism boards in both countries welcomed the move, framing it as a practical link that supports winter city breaks, desert tours, and business trips tied to hospitality, events, and trade.
Schedule, aircraft, and fares
Eurowings is currently the only carrier offering direct flights on Prague–Marrakech. Early listings showed high return fares, around 17,000 CZK, which industry analysts expect to drop as the route settles and competition responds.
Current fare observations:
– One-way fares seen from CZK 2,969 (about €119)
– Promotional seats in November 2025 from €69.99 one-way
– Analysts expect return tickets to fall below 5,000 CZK for flexible travelers who avoid peak dates and book early
VisaVerge.com notes that new routes often launch with wide price swings as airlines test demand and adjust capacity.
Travel agencies in Prague and Marrakech are already preparing winter packages aligned with the Thursday and weekend slots, including:
– Riad stays
– Atlas Mountains day tours
– Old-town walking circuits
Tourism officials hope the nonstop link will help:
– Families visiting relatives
– Students planning short cultural trips
– Small exporters meeting partners in person before spring
Eurowings will also debut a separate nonstop from Prague to Beirut in early November, signaling that Prague is regaining routes lost during the pandemic years.
How to book
Booking is open now on the Eurowings website. A simple flow applies:
- Choose Prague (PRG) as your origin and Marrakech (RAK) as your destination.
- Pick dates from November 8, 2025 through March 2026, avoiding the mid-season pause (January 3–February 15, 2026).
- Compare the Thursday and weekend departures for price and timing.
- Select seats, add bags if needed, and pay online.
The airline and airports advise travelers to:
– Check luggage rules carefully
– Consider late-night arrival times in Morocco on weekend flights
In Marrakech, taxis, pre-booked shuttles, and rideshare services normally run after midnight, but travelers preferring daytime arrivals may find the Thursday schedule more convenient.
Important: Airlines can change schedules. Check your booking a few days before departure.
Travel planning and entry rules
With the return of a nonstop option, travelers can avoid long layovers and reduce the chance of missed connections. Still, trip planning goes beyond the air ticket.
Before you fly:
– Confirm passport validity
– Check visa requirements
– Verify health coverage and any entry rules for both Morocco and the Czech Republic
– Remember rules can change, especially around holiday periods
Morocco offers an official online resource for electronic visa applications for eligible nationalities. For current information, use the Morocco eVisa portal. Keep in mind:
– Not all travelers need a visa
– Not all travelers are eligible for eVisa
– The official portal explains who qualifies and how to apply
For travelers heading from Marrakech to Prague:
– Requirements depend on nationality, purpose of stay, and length of visit
– Airline staff and airport websites can point to government sources but cannot grant exceptions at the gate
– Carry proof of accommodation, a return or onward ticket, and travel insurance covering medical care abroad
These documents help speed border control checks.
Practical notes for timing and connections
According to Prague airport officials, the schedule was designed for winter use cases:
– The late-morning Thursday departure allows same-day hotel check-in in Marrakech
– The weekend evening departure lets travelers work a full day in Prague before flying
– Return times enable use of Sunday or Monday morning connections from Prague without losing an extra hotel night
Local operators in Marrakech say:
– The Thursday arrival suits desert tour departures on Fridays
– The weekend arrivals allow short-stay visitors a full day in the medina before returning home
Prague hotels and tour companies expect special offers tied to inbound Thursday evening and early-morning weekend arrivals from Morocco.
Market outlook and context
The restoration of the route follows a period when direct links disappeared due to COVID-19 disruptions and airline restructuring. Regional outlets in late August 2025 — including Prague Morning and Morocco World News — highlighted the broader return of Prague’s long-weekend city breaks and Morocco’s winter sun trips for Central Europeans.
Market watchers say the new direct flights should increase competition on Central Europe–Morocco travel. If early sales are strong, Eurowings could review frequency or extend shoulder-season service beyond March 2026. The carrier has said it will monitor bookings and adjust pricing throughout the winter.
