British Airways (London) has announced it will launch new services to Marrakech from London (Gatwick) next year in direct competition with low cost carriers.

A mix of Boeing 737s and Airbus A319s will operate the thrice-weekly service, which departs Gatwick on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, returning the same evening.

British Airways last flew to Marrakech with GB Airways aircraft. The service operated from October 2002 until March 2008, when the route was discontinued following GB’s takeover by easyJet.

British Airways operates to 42 domestic, European and longhaul destinations from Gatwick and carries approximately five million customers a year through the airport.
