What you're owed
£350each if you land 3 hours or more late
Every route the CAA tracks between the UK and Morocco falls in the same distance band (Over 1,500 to 3,500 km), so a delay of 3 hours or more pays a flat £350 each if the flight left the UK (€400 under EU261 if it left Morocco instead and the airline was a UK or EU carrier). Find your route below.

All 15 tracked UK ↔ Morocco routes, sorted by yearly flight volume. Figures are each; the EU version of the law pays €400 for the same band.
The figure is payable only when the delay was within the airline's control. A technical fault, a crew shortage or a late inbound aircraft all count; genuinely extraordinary circumstances such as severe weather or an air traffic control restriction do not.

Not especially. They're about average for the 71 countries the UK flies to most, with 0.6% of flights landing 3 or more hours late.
That works out at about 120 flights a year crossing the 3-hour line, which is the point the airline has to pay.

The CAA's figures don't separate arrivals from departures, so this covers the corridor both ways.

Your rights
Your rights on this corridor
Every flight leaving the UK for Morocco is covered by UK law, whichever airline operates it. Flights the other way, landing in the UK from Morocco, are covered too if a UK or EU airline operated them; a return flight on a non-UK, non-EU carrier falls outside it, though the Montreal Convention and Morocco's own rules may still give you a claim. See the full breakdown on the 3-hour rule. Cancelled instead of delayed? Broadly the same amounts apply under different conditions. See cancelled flight compensation.
From our own tracking
Recent flights from Morocco that ran late
Every arrival into the airports we sweep that departed Morocco and ran 3 or more hours late, or was cancelled, since August. Newest first, and only flights UK or EU rules cover. A cancelled row carries no figure because what it pays turns on the notice you were given. Amounts are per person on the booking (half on the longest flights that landed 3 to 4 hours late). Airlines can still dispute a claim by proving the cause was outside their control, so check yours for the real answer. We earn a fee if you claim through a Claim link.
