Useful tips for plane travellers
• Ensure you double-check the flight duration; while it seems short at 3h 30m, this includes potential layovers if you're not taking a direct flight from Málaga to Rabat, which may delay your arrival significantly.
• Arriving at Rabat–Salé Airport can be a bit chaotic; make sure to follow the signs for 'Arrivals' and have your travel documents ready for customs. Consider using the airport's Wi-Fi to stay updated on transportation options upon landing.
• Taxis from Rabat–Salé Airport to the city center typically cost around 100 to 150 MAD (approximately €9 to €14), but it's wise to confirm the price with your driver beforehand to avoid any confusion.
