How to creatively cross the Atlantic?

  • Join me on this international BUSINESS CLASS flight with Royal Air Maroc from Casblanca, Morocco to Washington DC's Dulles Airport in one of their Boeing 787 Dreamliners! We'll check out the lounges, the cabin, the food, and the views.
    I had been in Brussels following my incredible flight to and from Dubai with Emirates in their new 777 and needed a new way to get back across the Atlantic. As I scanned Google Flights, a great idea appeared: Royal Air Maroc! I'd never flown this airline and they offered a 787 flight from Casablanca, so I jumped at the chance.
    The night before, I'd flown in from Brussels with Royal Air Maroc (RAM) and after a quick sleep and some sightseeing, I was ready to head back to the United States. I was very excited to jump onboard one of their Boeing 787 Dreamliners! Take a look at RAM's service and let me know what you think!
    Take a look at this report about the second leg (CMN - IAD) and let me know what you think!
    Here's a link to the first trip report (BRU - CMN)

    Another great video Jeb - love the humour and the fact they made you walk down the aerobridge without a plane attached. Happy flying!

    I use Royal Air Maroc once a year from JFK to Casablanca to Banjul Gambia for a medical mission. Their business class is well priced and the service is great. We always have an outbound layover of 16 hours and inbound 14. Gives us sometime to get to the beaches of Casablanca. I've been very happy with the professionalism of this airline. Great video.

    After seeing a bunch of your reviews, you really bring the bright light and right attitude on the minuscule yet inconvenient events such as going down the wrong aerobridge. I know some reviewers would just reign fire on shit like that. Even the simple mints that you received in one of those Kenya domestic plane flights, you found joy in that. It's refreshing.

    I travelled with RAM in 2016 London to Rio de Janeiro via Casablanca (B737 and B767) and agree that they are a nice airline, even in economy class. The fares are usually reasonable, the food and onboard service is great and they'll even give you a hotel room for free if your connection in Casablanca is longer than 8 hours. Pretty good all in all.

    Sometimes going on the buses is really cool like you said because you can see planes. I remember going on one at LAX and we went super close to four A380s and a 747.

    • @AlmostMonumental27
      @AlmostMonumental27 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’ve done that too at LAX, the bus out to the distant stand near the ocean for a flight to Papeete aboard one of the old Air Tahiti Nui A340s. Their Dreamliners are a tad nicer. Love the tropical vibe in the cabins, Gauguin repro art and bright yellow and turquoise pillows!

    Hi Jebb, think this is the worst combination for business class configuration. Even the Qatar 777 LR from Auckland to Doha has a 2-2-2 configuration, which I don't really like... It really should be a 1-2-1 configuration in every business class product! Love your coverage! Cheers Flip, NZ.

    Thanks for sharing. Air Marac was one of the airlines my company travel listed as an option to go to brussels and looking at the seats I’ll probably avoid this airline. I value having some privacy. Although passing through Casablanca seems nice.

    Aircraft width is certainly not an issue for a B787 with 2-2-2 but maybe they crammed too many rows in (pitch) so that results in a weird staggered configuration which limits legroom amongst other things. BC is becoming ever more important so the temptation is to "get more in"

    Well, 2-2-2 is somehow better than the incredible Emirate’s 2-3-2, but I agree that it is awkwardly arranged. Btw, can you turn your seat into a flatbed? As the height of the footrest is not the same for every seat, I think it could be a challenge though.
    And as always, love the video, and will always be your fan. :)

      Hey Jeb, so sorry about the multiple comments, I keep meaning to make a recommendation but then forget when I actually start to type the comment, but one thing that might help some of us, if we knew something about you. When you talk about leg room, well that might be different for someone 6ft or taller, vs someone 5ft. So if we knew how tall you were in the videos, that might give us a better comparison. Thanks.

    I love the Dreamliner, but after seeing that unattractive 2-2-2 business cabin and the nasty center slot for feet, I dunno. Emirates is one of my faves, carrier-wise so I’m tempted to fly EK through Dubai for an extra 13 hours in the air and $1,000 in the pocketbook to get the nice Triple-Seven’s business accommodations plus the Emirates service. Yet, y’know, it could just be a better option to move to a window seat (or aisle on that side) and spare myself the unnecessary time aloft and expense. But it’s late and I’m not a rational decision-maker at this hour so I’ll get back to you, Jeb! LOL. But originating in Birmingham, thassalotta extra flying. Thanks for sharing.

I see a comment on some of these blogs about sam Chui and I ahev expressed my annoyance to him several times on a flight and think he is emabaressing himself and the crew with his antics and control of the flight in regard to following everyone around. He is getting worse as the years go by
    Anyway Jeb is knowledgeable photogenic etc and does an excellent blog but those like myself can book and understand all the cabins on hundreds of airlines and find them interesting anyway .I explained to Jeb I have travelled block airline times 4000 hours so have vast experience thereand what I often see on planes or at airports.
