Don't you have Atlas Blue now ?

And don't worry G. you are not putting me off I have been from Casa to Fez to Kenifra to Marrakech to Essaouira to you name it and i really love it all

Yes - there is Atlas Blue now from UK. Very good service & nice & cheap too! A few people I know have flown with them this year. It still doesn't avoid the problem with internal flights tho'....

Malika - too funny. Its hard to enjoy beautiful Essaouira when you have a car full of irate passengers . I've done Rabat-Marrakech by train. Its 5 hours from Agdal but its ok. Air-Con, clean etc. My hubby & his bro tried the overnight CTM in winter & of course, the heating was off. Still, at least they arrived in one (frozen) piece ... As for Oujda, I was supposed to go last year & my family did the route you described but overnight. Leave at 10pm arrive 7am or so. Then a taxi to Saidia. Overnight is the only way I could do a 13 hour journey - I'd be ready to kill after 7 hours otherwise

Getting lost from city to city is one thing - how about getting lost within a city? When you're used to using A-Z maps, its so hard to do the Moroccan Directions thing. We did a marathon walk AROUND Marrakech once when we took the wrong turning near the Gare Routiere. A 10 min walk turned into a 1 1/2 walk ..... Viva Moroccan directions (zidi neeShan )

that is why people love to come to Morocco...
to enjoy their time.
enjoy food.
historic monuments
and most of all the healthy weather in Marrakech and the long walk or riding el koochi "chariot" on the horses or camels...in the south..
that is so pretty and i suggest that peopele willing to lose stress and gain their health back to visit such places
