If you’re considering a trip to Morocco this fall or next year and want to travel there in business class, you’re in luck. We’ve found huge swathes of award space available on Royal Air Maroc booked with Alaska miles. While it’s not the best business class seat around, you’ll need to redeem just 45,000 miles for a ticket to North Africa. You can’t beat that!

Let’s look at the deal and some of the best ways to book these tickets!

Award Alert — The Details

These awards are available through Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan and American Airlines AAdvantage and are operated by Royal Air Maroc, Morocco’s flagship carrier. This award deal involves Royal Air Maroc’s business class offering on its Boeing 787-8 and 787-9 aircraft. While it won’t win any awards, it’s a lie-flat seat that will comfortably get you to Morocco with no stops in between.

Currently, there’s only 1 seat available per flight in business class on most dates, so this deal is best fit for solo travelers. To search for available dates, you can use a tool like Seats.aero, which provides a big-picture overview, but Alaska Airlines’ own award calendar feature is also easy to use.

The lowest rates are available from Montreal (YUL) using Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan miles, with taxes and surcharges of just over $300 per person.

If you fly from New York or Washington, D.C., you’ll pay 55,000 miles and slightly less in fees.

Best Ways To Book

This award deal is available with American AAdvantage or Alaska Mileage Plan miles.

Earning AAdvantage miles is easy, thanks to its online shopping portal, AAdvantage Dining, using Simply Miles, co-branded credit cards, and transfers from Marriott Bonvoy.

If you need to earn Alaska Airlines miles, consider options like Mileage Plan Dining, co-branded credit cards, and transfers from Marriott Bonvoy and Bilt Rewards.

Final Thoughts

This is a great business class deal for a trip from the U.S. and Canada to Morocco, and it will be far more comfortable than flying economy on a long flight across the Atlantic. This kind of deal doesn’t last long, so book quickly before it’s gone for good!
