“Morocco is a beautiful and exciting country. Our direct flight from Oslo to Marrakech was launched with great success in 2008, and the demand for more flights to Morocco has been high. This winter we will therefore expand our Moroccan offer to also include Copenhagen and Stockholm,” said Daniel Skjeldam, Chief Commercial Officer for Norwegian.

“The Nordic Countries are the Moroccan National Tourist Office’s (MNTO) new priority markets for the coming years, as Morocco is beginning to offer an increasingly more appropriate product to Scandinavian travellers.
