Cherif Al Idrissi Airport (AHU)

Connecting at Cherif Al Idrissi Airport (AHU) is a straightforward process due to its single-terminal layout, which eliminates the need for inter-terminal transfers. Most passengers reach AHU via a domestic hop from Casablanca Mohammed V (CMN) or directly from European destinations like Brussels and Eindhoven. If you are planning a self-transfer, particularly between an international and a domestic flight, it is highly advisable to allow at least two and a half hours to account for baggage reclamation, customs clearance, and re-checking at the departures counter. For those on a through-ticket with Royal Air Maroc, the minimum connection time (MCT) is well-managed, but travelers should still verify their gate information upon arrival.

Ground transportation from the terminal provides several options for reaching Al Hoceima and the nearby coastal resorts. Taxis are the most popular and efficient choice, with a fixed official rate for the journey to the city center, which typically takes about 25 minutes. For the budget-conscious, a public bus service is available, although the journey can take over an hour and is less frequent than the taxi service. If you prefer more autonomy, several major car rental agencies have desks conveniently located within the arrivals hall. Always carry some Moroccan Dirham (MAD) for local transport and small airport expenses, as credit card acceptance can vary among taxi drivers and smaller vendors. Additionally, be prepared for thorough security checks, which are standard at all Moroccan airports, and ensure you have your boarding pass and passport ready for multiple verification points.
