Quoting Frostbite (Reply 4): RAM is considering flying into ATL? No way, really?
According to RAM's CEO, Yes they are. although there is no clear plan on when/how to plan on starting that service (ATL is Delta's main HUB, which is RAM's main code-share partner for North America)

Quoting Bambicruz (Reply 2): Im not an aviation expert, so Im not sure on how many Aircrafts they would need to accomplish such a schedule. Anyone knows ?
3 aircraft. One each for the daily to JFK and YUL, and another one for the combined twice weekly to JFK/YUL.

Great for RAM! They certain seem to be trying to be progressive and are helping Morocco establish a positive name particularly in tourism.
As a side note, somewhat sad, but RAM nearly began Los Angeles services in 2002. During the summer of 2001 the then Moroccan National Tourism Office in LA felt there was enough particularly high end traffic that would warrant direct services. A RAM delegation had visited LA to begin establising the required operating permits. The twice weekly flight was to have operated with the then newly arrived 767s.
Offcourse we all know the tragic events shortly afterwards lead to all plans being cancelled for the following summer.

I missed the old days when RAM had 744 to JFK and YUL (my fav 744 livery), but the current dedicated nonstops for both cities seem more efficient. IMO, there's a market or RAM to link North America with not only Morocco, but also North Africa and West Africa, one major advantage for RAM, unlike European airlines going to LOS having staff layover/catering issues (due to longer flights), RAM can go to those cities, turnaround, and return without those concerns.
I'm surprised that none of the North African airlines have tapped into this market, perhaps Libya will do it with sactions mostly lifted.

The RAM 763's are not such a rare sight in ATL now as DL does the checks for them. They ferry empty from JFK but usually they pull into one of the gates at terminal E before going to the hanger. The planes usually come in back to back. As one is completed the other shows up shortly after and after a while they return again after so many hours.

These are fantastic news. I am wondering though has Air Canada ever considered flying to Casablanca? Or did it ever operate the route to Casablanca from either Montreal or Toronto!?

Flights 206 and 208 depart YUL at the very same time. That is weird, isn't it?
There will be days (Wed, Fri, Sat) when two AT a/c will be ready to take off with the same schedule. Any reason for that?
