Casablanca Travel Forum

Hi there..

1. is there only 1 casablanca airport in Morocco?

2. how to get a train to hassan II mosque from the airport and how much is the fare?

3. from hassan II mosque train station, can i straight away go to Marrakech? How much is the train fare

Hi, yes there is only one airport for Casablanca, transport doesnt cost much really anywhere so train into the city from the airport is cheap enough and so are taxis that you can catch from the train station to the hassan mosque, walk along the beach to the cafe complexs north of the mosque and then catch a taxi back to the train station.

The mosque is certainly worth the effort of visiting but there are also interesting buildings around the city centre that are worth seeing too for their design - art deco mix.

Hate to have to orret you angie, but in point of pedanti fat there are attually two airports serving Casa: so so experiene of using air tiket search sites. However, in effet you are right sine all the flights go to one. Probably alled hassan II.

www.oncf.ma is the website for the moroccan rail network.

There is obviously something unspeakable lodged under the 'C' key on my omputer. I'll have to lean it.

Hi Antony,how are you doing - a bit of a laugh about those missing c's! and as you are also one of our Morocco gurus please dont think i mind being corrected but as for one or two airports for Casa - if you mean international airport versus some private landing pad somewhere Im only aware of one international airport for Casablanca and its called Mohammed V. Not everything is called Hassan II. Its 30km south of Casablanca and with a google lookup the website available has a good range of info of its services.

I have flown from Casa and we had no problems with mistaken airports or having to check whether we had landed or were taking off again at the right one because the pilot was pretty sure there was only that one serving international flights for Casa.

Have an enjoyable visit to Casa - the Lonely Planet is a good guidebook to take along with you as is also the DK eyewitness guide, to give you some preparation on art deco buildings/interesting architecture to see eg. the downtown postoffice, while you can if you are into that as well.

All I know is that if you do a booking search for Casblanca you get asked which airport you want. So it's an airport with a three-letter code and all, not just an airfield. Whether you can actually get a flight there, who knows.
