Despite the surge in jet fuel prices, Ryanair continues to operate all its flights to Morocco.

Here’s the translated article:

While Royal Air Maroc has recently announced the suspension of several international routes due to the steep rise in jet fuel prices, the low-cost airline Ryanair asserts that it will not reduce its flight schedule, particularly in the Moroccan market.

The Irish airline claims to benefit from a hedging strategy that allows it to secure its fuel costs against the volatility of global energy markets.

An Unstable Aviation Fuel Market

In recent months, the jet fuel market has experienced significant fluctuations, with rapid increases followed by corrections, illustrating a high level of price instability in the international energy sector.

Fuel represents a critical portion of airlines’ operating costs, especially for low-cost carriers, whose profit margins remain tight.

Long-Term Fuel Hedging

Ryanair reports that it has hedged approximately 80% of its fuel needs until March 2027 at prices below the current market rates, allowing it to maintain its flight schedule without major adjustments.

Thanks to this strategy, the company claims to be positioned for continued growth while keeping competitive fares amid pressures in the oil market.

Divergent Strategies in the Aviation Sector

This situation stands in contrast to that of other airlines, some of which have been forced to reduce their international routes in response to rising costs.

According to several analysts, this strategic difference strengthens Ryanair’s position in the market, enabling it to gain market share as some competitors struggle.
