Yes...
This is all so very sudden, Moroccan style
My direct flight to France on Transavia was -- and still is, I just checked on their website-- scheduled for Saturday afternoon.
No emails nor text messages from them. Yet.
This airline mostly flies between France, Morocco, Spain and The Netherlands ( it is owned by Air France-KLM ).
I am hoping the company somehow reroutes its planes.

Just been told that all ' return ' Transavia flights to France out of Morocco are maintained until December 2nd. My folks called the airline on my behalf.
I assume the same is true with other airlines linking the 2 countries.

Quick response from an email to GNV which is hopeful.

We are handling a large number of requests, we ask you the courtesy of waiting for our reply.

Good luck mate.
If the airlines are allowed to fly out to France your Saturday ferry should undergo the same treatment.
It would then be the very last before long.
The French MAE hasn't confirmed yet what the airline has been telling me but I suppose our public servants don't do overtime :-)

Suspension of flights deferred until the 28th now, so you may both be OK.

Not seen anything new from the Moroccans re the Mauritanian Border since the announcment a few weeks ago. But a lot of rumours that they would only allow people out not in
