One thought will always resonate with movie fans when they hear the word Casablanca – that beautifully scripted love story starring Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman.
The assumption would be that such a glorious masterpiece would have been filmed in the city it was named after. But, the sad truth is that it was not!
Having said that, there is so much more to the largest city in the Maghreb region than just a poetic love story. The city is filled with 3.3 million people that have helped to develop its intriguing history, influential architecture, lively art scene, mouth-watering farm to table food, souks, and an incredible surfers scene.
Trekking through the populous and bustling Casablanca Mohammed V International Airport [CMN] can make for a hectic and frustrating experience. However, don’t let that thought rattle you and have you reconsidering your trip, especially when there is a beautifully refurbished FBO within the airport that can save you from the queues and the long walk through Morocco’s largest airport.
New Look, New Feel, New Experience
Our Casablanca FBO next to CMN’s Terminal 3 has just been given a facelift because our customers and crew deserve a comfortable experience in a modern space. All our visitors can enjoy our luxurious amenities that include:
- Multilingual local expertise
- Luxury VIP lounges
- Crew lounges
- In-house flight planning
- Complete flight documentation package per local requirements
- Weather briefing and NOTAMs
- A dedicated area for a smooth process through customs and immigration
- Ground handling services
- World-class concierge services including hotel reservations and VIP transportation
The Location Is Unbeatable
The FBO operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week and is ideal since it is only 22 miles [35 kilometers] away from Casablanca’s downtown area. Exploring Morocco’s beauty is also made easy from this location with Rabat being just an hour’s drive away and Marrakech is a two hour and twenty-minute drive away.
For Your Aircraft
Casablanca’s airport has a 12205-ft [3720 meters] runway that can accommodate various types of aircrafts. Having the FBO in the airport’s terminal means that getting access to aircraft maintenance and servicing on site is possible when a request is put through.
Refueling at this particular location is particularly easy due to the fact that any type of fuel carnet is accepted, and any fuel release can be matched up. It is worth noting that Jet A Fuel is available, but Avgas is not.
Permits
All commercial flights looking to operate in Morocco need to acquire an OVF [overflight] permit and a landing permit. Our dedicated Jetex team can apply for a PPR [Prior Permission Required], which is obligatory for all aircrafts.
Do you need a slot?
No, you do not need a slot because the airport authorities regulate the airport.
