๐ข Terminal Information
Beni Mellal Airport (BEM) serves the city of Beni Mellal and the surrounding Beni Mellal-Khรฉnifra region in Morocco. This regional international airport efficiently handles domestic flights (primarily connecting to Casablanca) and some seasonal international charter services, catering to local residents and Moroccan diaspora. The terminal building is a compact, modern facility, designed for efficiency and passenger comfort, featuring integrated check-in, security, and departure areas.\n\nSecurity procedures at BEM are in line with Moroccan aviation regulations. Passengers can expect thorough screening of both carry-on and checked luggage, along with personal security checks before entering the departure lounge. For international flights, comprehensive passport control procedures are in place. Due to the airport's regional nature, processing times are generally efficient, though it is advisable to arrive with ample time, especially during peak travel periods. Boarding is typically conducted via a short walk across the tarmac to the aircraft, as the terminal does not often utilize jet bridges.\n\nAmenities within the terminal include a small cafรฉ offering beverages and light snacks, along with a few shops selling souvenirs and travel essentials. Restrooms and basic waiting areas are available. For ground transportation, taxis are readily available outside the terminal, providing convenient connections to Beni Mellal city center. Public transport options may be limited, so pre-booking a taxi is advisable. The airport serves as an efficient and welcoming gateway to this central Moroccan region, known for its agricultural production and scenic Atlas Mountain views.
