Venue and Transportation

From Casablanca Mohamed V airport to Rabat:

General Information:

Mohammed V Airport (Casablanca) to ASONAM 2026 venye (ENSMR) is about 85-90 km, roughly 1 hour 30 minutes driving. ENSMR is located on Avenue Hadj Ahmed Cherkaoui in Rabat-Agdal, essentially next to the Rabat Agdal train station, which makes the train the most convenient option. It is close to some of the hotels recommended by the local organizers.
To travel from Casablanca Mohamed V Airport to Rabat, here are the two most convenient options:

Option 1. Train (ONCF), cheapest, most reliable (recommended)
1. From the arrivals hall, follow signs for "Train / Gare". The airport train station is right under Terminal 1.
2. Buy a ticket at the counter or self-service terminals for "Rabat Agdal" as your destination. This station is the closest one to ENSMR. Price is roughly 100 MDH ($10). The journey takes 2 hours and 30 minutes, with a connection at Casa Voyageurs.
3. Trains run roughly every hour. Check live schedules on www.oncf-voyages.ma before you go, since timetables shift.
4. Get off at Rabat Agdal station. ENSMR is a 5 minutes’ walk from there, on the same avenue (Avenue Hadj Ahmed Cherkaoui).

Option 2: Direct taxi from the airport, fastest
Exit to the official taxi line just outside the arrivals (avoid taxi scams inside the terminal).
Ask for a "Grand Taxi" or official airport taxi to Rabat. Negotiate the fare before getting in if there's no fixed-rate, since airport-to-Rabat is often a flat negotiated fare. Expect approximately 500 MAD ($50).
Show the driver the name of your hotel (having it written in Arabic or French helps, and Google Maps pinned works well).
Trip takes about 1hours 30 minutes depending on traffic.
