Morocco’s flag carrier has canceled 7 flights to Doha scheduled for Wednesday.
“Due to the latest restrictions imposed by the Qatari authorities, Royal Air Maroc regrets to inform customers of the cancellation of their flights operated by Qatar Airways” the airline said in a statement.
Due to flight cancellations, fans who had tickets for the semi-final between Morocco and France and booked hotel rooms will not be able to travel to the match.
Royal Air Maroc previously said it would arrange 30 additional flights to help supporters get to their national team’s match on Wednesday. However, on Tuesday, an airline source said only 14 flights had been scheduled.
Morocco’s national airline has apologized to customers and promised to refund the cost of the tickets.
