Sometimes absolutely opposite associations cause Morocco from travelers. Some call it "a cold country with a hot sun", poetic natures dubbed this country "the edge of the golden sunset", historians have their own unique opinion. But all experienced travelers agree on a single thought - it's definitely worth going there. Well, the most comfortable and fastest mode of transport in this case is the plane.
There are 27 airports in Morocco . All of them have a hard cover of the runway. For the greater comfort of tourists, most of the largest cities and resorts in Morocco have international airports: Agadir , Rabat , Casablanca , Marrakech , etc. Domestic flights are relatively inexpensive, although it will sometimes be much cheaper to ride a train. Characteristically, most of Morocco's airports have such an interesting feature, as dual domestic and international flights. Roughly speaking, traveling by domestic airlines, you pass passport control, but only show a boarding pass. Additionally, to stand in a huge queue and fill in the immigration card is not necessary. It is very convenient and saves time and effort.
