    My husband and I purchased 2 one-way tickets with Royal Air Maroc in March 2023 at a total cost of $2792.90 from *****, ******* to ****************** Airport *** departing Saturday, June 3, arriving June 4, connecting in **********, *******. We were involuntarily bumped from our flight from ********** to *****************. We had a confirmed reservation, checked into our flight on time, and arrived at the counter on time. We were offered the option of changing to a flight that departed the next day (delay of 24 hours). That was unacceptable to us. In the ******************, the Royal Air Maroc staff were not only unhelpful, but were verbally abusive and harassed us. We filed a police report with the ****************** police against the airline and the employee who harassed us.Per the U.S. ********** of ************** laws (*****************************************************), we were involuntarily bumped from our flight and had a delay in reaching our final destination of more than 4 hours. We are *********** compensation of 400% of the one-way fare ($6,116.40) or a maximum of $1,550 per person.We each bought a ticket with Lufthansa at a total cost of $3,304 to get from ********** to **. We sent 6 requests for refunds via their online portal in June and November 2023. We have also made phone calls on various dates in June, July, September, November 2023. When I call, I am told I have to "wait longer" with no time frame. It has been now over 6 months since I first requested compensation. The airline shows no effort whatsoever to reimburse or refund **** submitted a dispute with my credit card, Citibank, who did not resolve the matter. In written correspondence with ****, the airline says we are *********** a compensation of $868.21 for one ticket and $1,009.92 for the other ticket since they are refundable and we did not use the ********** to ** flight. At a minimum, we would like a refund for these amounts.Thank you for your help,***********************************

    Better Business Bureau:



    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:


    I had paid extra money for window and aisle seats in addition to the price of the ticket. We were a party of 5 on my return flight from Casablanca to Miami. Unfortunately instead of getting the preferred seats I paid for , 3 of the passengers were reallocated middle seats. On a long haul this was very tough as some of the passengers had limited mobility. 
    Air Maroc instead of refunding the extra money I paid want me to fly with them again  what a joke !


    In order for the BBB to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.




    Sincerely,


    * ****

    Azura Findlay Booking Number ****** My trip was not schedule until Nov, however I am canceling my flight due to an Earthquake killing more than ***** people and injured ***** and damaging many buildings and hotels in *********. I also know that it will take many months to rebuild and get thing back to normal. I feel that this is a huge injustice and poor customer service on ********************** part to not refund a total of ******. I emailed the company so that someone can advise as to why am only being refunded ****** oppose to ****** out of the total amount paid of ****** that I paid for the ticket. The emails responses are computer generate or standard and I keep getting the exact email responds word for word in each response with only the amount being entered manually. I understand and except the cancellation fee of ******. But I do not agree with not refunding me back for my seat which is crazy, if am paying 236 to cancel my flight why am I also being charged another ****** for a seat fee to which they do not want to refund? Can I cancel my flight and still fly on this seat no I cannot because the flight is cxl so how are you charging me for a seat that I will never use. I am only canceling my flight due the devastation that took place. How can they expect me to want to travel to country that had an earthquake which killed over ***** people the place will be in ruins. I find that the company is taken advantage of their customer and taken their money, there is no one in there company that care about true customer service when asked if I could speak to a manger they refused and said no they cant help me. So basically they just take your money and you cannot do anything about which is morally wrong in so many ways. I am not asking for a full refund but in light of the situation I would think that Royal Air Maroc would treat customers fairly and have empathy to what has happened and at least agree to refund me ****** as I do not plan on flying or using there airline in the near future due to the horrible experience am having.Please confirm refund in the amount of ******?

    My flight was from 1st Leg BOS 22 Jun 2023 07:46 AM *** Jun 2023 09:00 AM 2nd Leg *** 22 Jun 2023 11:50 AM CMN 22 Jun 2023 23:40pm What Actually happen 1st Leg BOS 22 Jun 2023 10:30 AM *** 22 Jun 2023 11:30 AM 2nd Leg *** 23 Jun 2023 5:00 AM CMN 23 Jun 2023 5:00 PM I reserve the ticket to fly from ******, ** to ********** , *******, however, my flight starting from *** to *** got delayed in ****** , we arrived late , and we run to catch out flight from *** to CMN , however, the flight was delayed , and they told us that the flight got cancelled and we have to wait till next day at 5 am, I have my wife and my kid with me , they didnt provide us with hotel options, and I was forced to sleep in the airport with a toddler, I tried to talk to them several times , but they refuse to listen to me , and at the end they brought airport police to push us back away from them and not talk to them.Also there was another flight that was flying to the same destination at 7pm, same day , they refused to put us on that plane , and when protesting for not being able to be put on that flight, they brought police to force us not to talk to them .There were many cheap tickets that I could have taken, and they are cheaper, the only reason I took this flight is because it was a short layover and shorter time, but it ends up being the slowest and longer layover, and the most expensive one, I could have flown with half of the price of what I paid with RAM.The reason I wanted to go fast , is because my dad died , and I wanted to catch his funeral and say goodbye to him, they ruined everything and I wish they can just talk to us , they ignore us and never wanted to talk to us, I have everything on video , and ready to provide video if necessary , I also called their customer service on the phone to talk to them, the agent responded and asked to forward me to another agent that never picked up. *******************************************************************************

    On may 2 i flew from ******** to ********** in ******* , at my arrival i couldnt find my bag and i tried to talk to agent for help but they didnt want to make a claim for me , i had to go to the police station in the airport for them to intervene , i was told in airport of casablanca by several people that the employee of Royal air maroc always refuse to make a claim for lost baggage and assure you to just go to your destination and that they will bring to you , wich is a lie , without a claim there is no evidence and therefore when the bag make it to the airport will be stolen . Since i went there for work i needed to shoot some cloths that were inside the lost bag i saw no need for me to stay and i end up leaving same day i arrived ! In my flight back to *** i was given a meal that has shattered glass or plastic i showed to the flight attendant she apologized briefly and then vanished ! Since then i tried to contact Royal air maroc for compensating my er visit and flight refund that was caused due to negligence , till this date they havent answered any of my emails or my calls not even an apology fo this ordeal

    I booked a flight with RAM on July 10,2023 I called and canceled the flight within 10 minutes of booking after reading reviews. The company assured me that I would have a refund within 72 hours. A week passed and still no refund, I called and they said it was my bank and to wait 10 days. It is now July 28th and I still have no refund. I called and they said its a system issue but assure me I will get my refund. I asked for a supervisor and ******* hung up on me.
