Flights to Marrakesh
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Marrakesh is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Marrakesh Menara Airport (RAK), 5 km (3 mi) from the centre, whose 10,170-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Marrakesh Menara Airport | RAK | 5 km (3 mi) | 10,170 ft | 1,545 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 10,170 ft, RAK can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 1,545 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
