(AGENPARL) – gio 19 dicembre 2024 AIR ARABIA INAUGURATES NEW ROUTE BETWEEN FEZ AND MILAN BERGAMO
Air Arabia Maroc, a member airline of the Air Arabia Group and a leading low-cost carrier
based in Casablanca, Morocco, inaugurated its new route between Fez and Milan Bergamo
Airport on Thursday, December 18. The first flight, operated by an A320 aircraft, was welcomed
with the traditional water cannon salute by the Fire Brigade of the Orio al Serio Airport Station.
This is the second route operated by Air Arabia between Morocco and Milan Bergamo
Airport, following the launch of the Casablanca route on May 12, 2009. The new connection with
Fez, known as the cultural capital of Morocco with its imperial heritage and UNESCO-listed
medina, will offer two weekly flights, operating on Wednesdays and Sundays.
The inaugural flight from Fez to Milan Bergamo was attended by Fatima Meziane,
Regional Manager Benelux Italy and Germany, Marco D’Onofrio, Italy Sales Manager for Air
Arabia Maroc, and Claudio Lazzati, Italy Sales Executive for Air Maroc.
Both the Fez and Casablanca routes, the latter operating daily except Saturdays, are
served by the Airbus A320 in a single-class configuration with 174 seats. The same type of
aircraft is also used by Air Arabia to connect Milan Bergamo to Cairo with five weekly flights, and
to Alexandria, Egypt, during the summer schedule.
Since December 7, 2022, Air Arabia has been operating daily flights between Milan
Bergamo and Sharjah International Airport, located just a few kilometers from the city center and
only twenty minutes from Dubai. This route is operated using the Airbus A321neoLR, configured
in a single class with 215 seats. The stopover in Sharjah allows passengers to connect to over
80 destinations across Asia, the Middle East, the Gulf, and Africa.
