Cheap flights from London to Casablanca

October is the cheapest month on this route, and the months around it — late September and November — usually stay close. Summer is the busy stretch, when families fly and fares climb; the winter months are quieter but busier around Christmas and New Year. School holidays in the United Kingdom and holidays in Morocco both push prices up, so book well ahead if your dates fall in those weeks. Flying midweek, on a Tuesday or Wednesday, tends to cost less than a Friday or Sunday departure. For the lowest fares, watch the price calendar a few months out and book when the fare dips rather than waiting until the last weeks.

Royal Air Maroc is the carrier most associated with this route and flies it nonstop, with checked baggage usually part of the fare. The low-cost side is busy — Easyjet, Jet2 and Wizz Air Malta sell seats on connections through their bases, where a cabin bag is often all you get unless you pay for more. Air France, TAP Portugal, Iberia Express, Vueling Airlines and Pegasus tend to route you through their own hubs, so the trip takes longer and the fare rules differ. Check what each ticket includes before you compare prices.

Mohammed V is the airport serving Casablanca, and it is the one you land at on this route, whether you fly nonstop or connect. It sits outside the city, so plan the transfer into town rather than assuming you can walk out and find your hotel. Taxis and the airport rail link are the usual ways in, and both get busy when several flights land together — allow a buffer if you have a meeting to reach. Keep some local currency for the ride, and confirm your drop-off point before you set off.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Decide which London airport suits you — Heathrow, Gatwick, Luton, Stansted or London City — since crossing the city between them takes time.
• Check whether checked baggage is included, especially on Easyjet, Jet2 and Wizz Air Malta, where a cabin bag is often the default.
• On a self-transfer through a hub, leave time to clear immigration and re-check your bag.
• Confirm Morocco's entry rules for your passport before you pay.
• Fly in October if your dates are flexible, and compare the price calendar rather than one date.
• Book early for summer and the winter holidays, when this route gets busy.
