Casablanca is one of the easiest long-weekend hops out of Paris: a short three-hour nonstop, no time-zone jetlag, and several airlines competing from both main airports. This guide covers who flies the route, what a fair return fare looks like in euros, and when to book to get the best price.
Route: Paris (CDG / ORY) → Casablanca Mohammed V (CMN)
Distance: approximately 1,900 km (1,180 miles)
Non-stop flight time: about 3h 00m – 3h 15m
Direct flights: Yes — Air France and Royal Air Maroc fly nonstop from Charles de Gaulle, while Transavia France and Royal Air Maroc fly nonstop from Orly. Several departures a day from each airport.
Fares from Paris to Casablanca (EUR)
Casablanca is a year-round destination, so fares are driven more by demand peaks than by weather. The priciest windows are the summer holidays (July–August, when the Moroccan diaspora travels), the Christmas and New Year period, and the days around Eid. Spring and autumn are the sweet spot for both price and mild weather. The table below shows when the route is busiest. We no longer print per-month fare estimates here, because they were never measured.
| Month | Demand |
|---|---|
| January | medium |
| February | low-medium |
| March | low-medium |
| April | medium |
| May | medium |
| June | medium-high |
| July | very high |
| August | very high |
| September | medium |
| October | medium |
| November | low-medium |
| December | high (holidays) |
Reference points from our own deal tracking: a genuinely good return lands around €110–€160, a typical fair price is roughly €200–€230, and anything under about €165 is worth booking quickly. The lowest fares are usually the low-cost Orly departures; Air France nonstops sit a little higher but include more.
Airlines on this route
Non-stop (about 3 hours):
- Air France — nonstop from Charles de Gaulle, multiple times daily; full-service with a checked bag on most fares.
- Royal Air Maroc — Morocco’s flag carrier, nonstop from both CDG and Orly; a Oneworld member with generous baggage.
- Transavia France — low-cost nonstop from Orly; usually the cheapest headline fare, with bags and seats charged extra.
Because three carriers compete across two airports, the Paris–Casablanca market is well-served and rarely short of seats. If you want the lowest price, watch Transavia out of Orly; if you value a full bag allowance and lounge network, Air France or Royal Air Maroc are the picks.
When to book & how to save
- Book 4–8 weeks ahead for the best balance of price and choice on this short-haul route; last-minute fares can spike, especially around holidays.
- Avoid July, August and the Christmas week if you can — these are the peak diaspora-travel periods and the most expensive.
- Fly in spring or autumn (March–May, September–October) for the lowest fares and the most comfortable weather in Casablanca.
- Be flexible on the Paris airport: Orly usually has the cheapest low-cost options, while CDG has the widest Air France schedule.
- Check the bag rules: Transavia’s lowest fares are cabin-bag only, so add the checked-bag cost before comparing with Air France or Royal Air Maroc.
Arriving in Casablanca
Flights land at Mohammed V International (CMN), about 30 km south of the city centre. The cheapest way in is the ONCF train from the airport station, which runs to Casa-Voyageurs and Casa-Port in around 40 minutes for roughly €4. A metered “grand taxi” or ride-hail into the centre costs about €25–€35 and takes 30–45 minutes depending on traffic. Morocco uses the dirham (MAD); ATMs are available in the arrivals hall.

Which airport do I fly into in Casablanca?
You arrive at Mohammed V International (CMN), Casablanca’s main airport, about 30 km south of the city. It has a direct train link (ONCF) to the city centre, so you don’t need a taxi unless you prefer door-to-door.
How far in advance should I book Paris to Casablanca flights?

Is it cheaper to fly on weekdays?
Often, yes — midweek departures (Tuesday to Thursday) are usually a little cheaper than Friday–Sunday, when weekend and diaspora travel push demand up. Flexing your dates by a day or two, and mixing airports, is one of the easiest ways to trim the fare.
