Getting to Marrakech
The fastest, and sometimes, the only way to get to Marrakech is by plane from Europe, the U.S., Canada or Australia. If you live in Europe, you can also drive down to Spain and cross to Tangier by boat, but the drive is very long and exhausting. We would only recommend this option if you are scared of flying.
Traveling from the U.S.
If you’re traveling from the United States, the only direct flights from the U.S. to Morocco is with Royal Air Maroc from New York JFC to Casablanca. The flight takes around six hours. The connecting flight from Casablanca to Marrakech is only 50 minutes long. Another interesting option, and often cheaper, is to fly to Madrid with Iberia Airlines and from there directly to Marrakech. This might be a better option if you're flying from other cities in the U.S. since there are more direct flights to Madrid.
Traveling from Canada
Since June 2016, Air Canada rouge offers non-stop flights from Montreal to Casablanca. From other Canadian cities, the cheapest alternatives are to fly to London, Madrid or Paris and then get a direct flight to Marrakech (this can be with a low-cost carrier like Easyjet or Ryanair).

There are no direct flights between Australia and Morocco. The biggest airlines that fly between the two countries with at least one connecting flight are:
