Royal Air Maroc Safar Flyer

Royal Air Maroc Safar Flyer is the loyalty program of Royal Air Maroc, the CMN-based Moroccan flag carrier and oneworld's 14th member (joined April 1, 2020). The fleet runs roughly 55-60 aircraft - B737, B787-8/-9, E190, ATR - and a fleet-doubling plan announced in 2023 is reshaping the network. RAM moves to the new JFK Terminal One in 2026, and Casablanca is the program's only meaningful hub.

For US travelers the redemption story is thin and the status story is the headline. None of the major US flexible currencies (Amex, Chase, Capital One, Citi, Bilt, Wells Fargo) transfer to Safar Flyer, and Marriott Bonvoy is not a direct partner either. The Accor ALL hotel-side bridge (2,000 ALL = 1,000 Safar Flyer) is a niche double-dip. The real value is the oneworld status match: 2026 pricing through StatusMatch.com is Silver $149 / Gold $349 / Platinum $749, valid through Dec 31 2026, which is the cheapest documented path to oneworld Emerald in the industry. As of November 25, 2025, the match excludes US airline status holders and hotel elites - so this is for travelers without existing US elite status.

Safar Flyer uses a region-based award chart for own metal and the published oneworld partner chart for partner awards. Sample one-way saver pricing on RAM metal as of May 2026 (verify on royalairmaroc.com - online flow limited):

Phone booking often required for partner awards; YQ pass-through on RAM metal.
