AD PLACEMENT — CONTEXTUAL
Confirm your flight is actually operating from Anfa (CAS) and not Mohammed V International (CMN), as many travelers confuse the two Casablanca airports.
Do not plan a same-airport connection here, as CAS has almost no scheduled commercial airline network to connect within.
If you need to transfer to or from an international flight, budget significant time and a taxi ride to CMN, which is roughly 30-45 minutes away depending on traffic.
Arrive early regardless of flight type, since the small terminal has limited staff and processing can be slow despite low passenger volumes.
Keep cash on hand, as amenities, ATMs, and card payment options are minimal compared to a major international hub.

High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
The terminal is a single small building with one apron, so there is no inter-terminal transit system to speak of. Any transfer involves simply walking from the arrival gate area to the departure area, both a few dozen meters apart, with no train, bus, or shuttle required.

What happens if I miss my connection at CAS?
