Customer Service Plan / Tarmac Delay Plan
Royal Air Maroc Customer Service Plan
Royal Air Maroc intends to ensure that your air travel experience will encompass, to the best of our abilities, the most comprehensive customer service possible. We have outlined our responsibilities and how we will fulfill them in key points below, known as our Customer Service Plan.
The Royal Air Maroc Customer Service Plan applies only to bookings for transportation to or from the USA.
1. Offering the lowest fare available
We will offer our lowest fares on www.royalairmaroc.com. Our telephone reservation system and airport ticket counters in the US will offer the lowest published fare for which you are eligible, which may not be as low as the fares offered on www.royalairmaroc.com. Customers calling our reservations office or visiting our ticket offices or counters to purchase a ticket will be advised that lower fares may be available on the Internet.
2. Notifying consumers of known delays, cancellations, and diversions
We will provide full and timely information on the status of known delays, cancellations, and diversions within 30 minutes after we become aware of such a change by:
- Providing flight status information via our telephone reservation system, on www.royalairmaroc.com. and via our SMS, email and telephone subscription flight status notification services.
- Providing, through our gate agents at US airports, consistent and timely updates in the boarding gate area.
- Updating flight status displays and other sources of flight information under our control at US airports and provide flight status updates to U.S. airports that accept such information for airport-controlled display systems.
3. Delivering baggage on time
It is our intention to deliver your baggage on time. However, in the event that this does not occur, we will make every reasonable effort to return your baggage within 15 or 30 hours consistent with the requirements of 14 CFR 260.5. If upon arrival you have not been able to pick up your baggage, go to Baggage Services to fill out a declaration. The information you give will be immediately entered into

the worldwide baggage search system. A file number will be issued and your will be able to monitor what is happening over the Internet. Unless otherwise stated, for international travel governed by the Montreal Convention, liability for damages for delayed, lost or damaged baggage is limited to a maximum of 1,288 Special Drawing Rights per person. We will reimburse any fee charged to a passenger to transport a bag if that bag is lost or significantly delayed and we will compensate passengers for reasonable expenses that result from a delay in delivery as required by the Montreal Convention.
4. Providing prompt ticket refunds
For all tickets to and from the United States for which we are the merchant of record, refunds of fares and ancillary service fees will be issued automatically in all cases where we cancel or significantly delay your flight and you do not accept alternative transportation or compensation as provided in 14 CFR Part 260. Refunds will be provided promptly, meaning we will issue a payment in your original form of payment (i.e., check, credit card, cash, or Safar Flyer miles) within 7 days of the cancellation or delay for credit card purchases and within 20 days of cancellation or significant delay for purchases made with other forms of payment.
Royal Air Maroc will refund a purchased ticket with a full refund without penalty up to 24 hours after reservation for reservations made seven days (168 hours) or more prior to the flight’s scheduled departure. This policy applies to refundable as well as non-refundable fares.
5. Properly accommodating passengers with disabilities and other special needs, including during tarmac delays
Properly Accommodating Passengers with Disabilities:” Accommodating the special needs of passengers with disabilities is a top priority for Royal Air Maroc. We will properly accommodate passengers with disabilities as required by 14 CFR Part 382 and will provide a refund to a passenger with a disability or a person on the same reservation as a passenger with a disability who does not wish to continue travel as required by 14 CFR 260.6(c).
Royal Air Maroc provides special service for physically impaired passengers and guarantees optimum conditions of comfort, security and
assistance for the entire duration of the journey, including:
- Transportation to, from, and between gates.
- Boarding assistance.
- Assistance with visual, auditory, cognitive, or mobility impairments while in the airport and on the plane.
- Consideration of your needs during extended tarmac delays.
6. Disclosing the Right to a Refund:
We will disclose to you that you are entitled to a refund when that is the case whenever we offer alternative transportation, travel credits, vouchers, or other compensation in lieu of a refund consistent with the requirements of 14 CFR 260.7. We will always disclose any material restrictions, conditions, or limitations on travel credits, vouchers, or other compensation that we offer regardless of your entitlement to a refund.

7. Providing Travel Credits When Travel Is Prevented by Serious Disease:
We will provide, upon request, travel credits or vouchers that are transferrable and do not expire for at least five years from the date of issuance if your travel is impacted by a serious communicable disease as described in 14 CFR Part 262.
8. Unaccompanied Children
Our policies ensure the safety and well being of children traveling alone including:
- Permanent surveillance by the flight personnel from check-in to delivery of the child at the place of destination.
- Providing an identification packet to the child and requiring the accompanying party fill out a "UM travel form", that has to be signed upon arrival by the individual awaiting the child at the airport. That individual must produce a currently valid personal I.D. document and sign the "UM travel form".
- Providing unaccompanied passenger service for children under 12 but at least 8 years old at the date of the outgoing journey, provided a disclaimer of responsibility is signed by the parents or legal guardian. Children under 8 are not accepted to travel alone. They have to be accompanied by another passenger at least 15 years old. Exception: Children under 8 and over 4 on direct flights (no connections) can be accepted to travel alone but only provided there are no more than three children travelling on the same plane in these conditions. To do this, the child or children must be mentioned upon reserving.
- When the passenger is not the father, mother or legal guardian, a duly signed certificate stating acceptance of responsibility for the child for the duration of the flight shall be required.
9. Meeting customers’ essential needs during lengthy tarmac delays
If there is a lengthy tarmac delay at a US airport, and, if safety and security conditions allow, we will provide for your essential needs such as food, potable water, operable lavatory facilities, and access to medical treatment.
