Why Chinese exporters choose Royal Air Maroc Cargo for Africa, Europe and Americas-bound cargo.
For Chinese manufacturers and traders, Royal Air Maroc Cargo offers a uniquely positioned, rapidly expanding air freight solution with three distinct advantages.
Strategic hub at the crossroads of continents. Casablanca's Mohammed V International Airport is situated at the geographic intersection of Africa, Europe and the Americas, making it a natural transshipment hub. The airline is building Casablanca as a "true air bridge between Asia, Africa, and the Americas", offering Chinese cargo efficient access to over 30 African destinations with transit time savings of up to 24 hours, plus direct onward connections to Brazil and the Americas.
Direct China connectivity with dedicated belly capacity. Royal Air Maroc reinstated direct flights between Casablanca and Beijing Daxing in January 2025, operating three times per week with Boeing 787-9 aircraft. Each flight offers approximately 30 tonnes of cargo uplift each way, providing Chinese shippers with reliable, direct belly-hold capacity to North Africa and onward connections across the airline's global network. The airline has announced plans to expand to Shanghai and Guangzhou in the future.
Dedicated freighter network and specialised handling. Royal Air Maroc Cargo operates a dedicated Boeing 767 freighter fleet serving key African and European destinations. The Casablanca hub boasts an annual cargo handling capacity of 200,000 tonnes with specialised facilities for perishables, pharmaceuticals, and high-value goods— critical capabilities for Chinese exporters of temperature-sensitive products, medical supplies and high-value electronics. The airline's GSSA in China, Globe Air Cargo China, provides advanced digital solutions for revenue management, e-booking and capacity optimization.
On cost and reliability, routing via Casablanca offers competitive rates compared to all-the-way long-haul products, while Royal Air Maroc's extensive interline agreements provide access to an even broader global network. Goodhope Freight consolidates and negotiates on the China side, so exporters benefit from consolidated rates, predictable departures and local Chinese-language support. With over 80 destinations served globally, 45 years of trusted presence in the US market, and a growing China footprint, Royal Air Maroc Cargo is a dependable, strategic partner for Chinese exporters targeting Africa, Europe and the Americas.
How to book Royal Air Maroc Cargo space from mainland China through Goodhope Freight.
How Royal Air Maroc Cargo's Casablanca hub and specialised services create value for freight from China.
Royal Air Maroc Cargo is built around a single, strategically positioned hub: Mohammed V International Airport in Casablanca (CMN). From there, the airline operates a growing network of dedicated freighter services and utilises belly capacity on its passenger fleet to reach over 80 destinations across Africa, Europe, the Americas and Asia. The airline is actively positioning Casablanca as a regional transshipment hub — a "true air bridge between Asia, Africa, and the Americas" — connecting cargo to key markets including West Africa, Europe, Brazil and the United States.
Specialised cargo capabilities are a cornerstone of Royal Air Maroc Cargo's offering. The Casablanca hub is equipped with an annual cargo handling capacity of 200,000 tonnes and features specialised facilities for perishables, pharmaceuticals, and high-value goods. This makes the airline particularly well-suited for Chinese exporters of temperature-sensitive medical supplies, fresh produce, electronics and other high-value commodities. The airline's dedicated Boeing 767 freighter fleet provides 45 tonnes of capacity per flight on key regional routes, while the Boeing 787-9 offers approximately 30 tonnes of belly cargo uplift on the China route.
Digital transformation and technology are also central to the airline's cargo strategy. In China, Globe Air Cargo China (ECS Group subsidiary) provides advanced digital solutions including revenue management, e-booking platforms, and capacity optimization tools. These technologies enable real-time tracking, streamlined booking and data-driven insights that enhance operational efficiency and maximise cargo potential.
Looking ahead, Royal Air Maroc Cargo has announced plans to expand its China presence with future connections to Shanghai and Guangzhou. The airline is also committed to strengthening its role as a strategic connector between Asia and Africa, with Casablanca serving as the central hub for high-value trade flows. With a modern fleet, expanding China connectivity and a full suite of specialised cargo capabilities, Royal Air Maroc Cargo is well-positioned as a strategic partner for Chinese exporters targeting Africa, Europe and the Americas.
