Tangier will become the carrier’s fourth base in Morocco, with two aircraft. It will join other bases at Marrakech, Fez and Agadir, meaning the airline will station 14 aircraft in the country, half of them in Marrakech.

The additions mean Ryanair will operate 175 routes from Morocco next year, 35 of them new, including 11 domestic services.

Ryanair claims to have invested $1.4 billion in Morocco, which will be one of the countries staging the 2030 Fifa World Cup.

New routes for next summer include Birmingham, Bournemouth and Edinburgh to Agadir, plus Manchester to Tangier. Birmingham, Bristol and Leeds Bradford will also get a new Marrakech service.
