35 years of interrupted service definitely deserves cake to celebrate since it speaks of dedication and great cooperation – in this case between Royal Air Maroc Cargo, Brussels Airport Company, Globe Air Cargo GSA, and industry partners who all came together on 22OCT25 to mark this achievement. Congratulations on your milestone! From its inaugural flight to Brussels in 1990, Royal Air Maroc Cargo’s service has grown to today’s thrice-weekly flights between Casablanca (CMN) and Brussels (BRU), operating a Boeing 767 freighter. It now carries over 4,300 tons annually and boasts an 85% load factor. Imports to Casablanca and beyond – as the Moroccan airport acts as a key gateway to Africa – are largely industrial machinery, automotive parts, and pharmaceuticals. Brussels has long established itself as a central hub for cargo connecting Europe with African destinations such as Dakar, Ouagadougou, and Bamako, with 74% of Royal Air Maroc Cargo shipments from Brussels bound for the continent. As the airline strengthens its European network, it also continues to invest in digital modernization through platforms like cargo.one (since 2024) and CargoAi (since this year), improving transparency, booking access, and customer experience while sustaining operational excellence at Brussels Airport. Yassine Berrada, Vice-President Cargo at Royal Air Maroc, commented: “Thirty-five years at Brussels Airport is a testimony to the trust built with our customers, partners, and the Belgian logistics community. This route is essential to our network, and we remain fully committed to delivering the reliability, efficiency, and customer care that our partners expect. Together with Brussels Airport, we will continue connecting Africa to its principal European market for many years to come.”
