Atlas Blue, the new low-cost subsidiary of Royal Air Maroc (RAM), has launched charter services to France using a Boeing 737-400 transferred from its parent. The Moroccan government and flag carrier RAM created Marrakesh-based Atlas Blue to offer competitive point-to-point leisure services between Morocco and key tourism markets. The fleet will expand to six 737-400s later this year.

Boeing chief executive David Calhoun thinks the company could have its 737 Max 7 and Max 10 certificated by the Federal Aviation Administration in the first half of 2025, while cautioning that the regulator will determine ultimate timing.
Boeing still aims by year-end to boost production to 38 737s and five 787s monthly, returning to output levels at which the company had said it was operating prior to this year’s production slowdown.
