Morocco's national airline said it was cancelling all flights it had scheduled for Wednesday to carry fans to Doha for the World Cup semi-final, citing what it said was a decision by Qatari authorities.
"Following the latest restrictions imposed by the Qatari authorities, Royal Air Maroc regrets to inform customers of the cancellation of their flights operated by Qatar Airways," the airline said in an emailed statement.
Requests for reaction from the international media office of the Qatari government went unanswered right away.
In order to facilitate fans' travel to Qatar for Wednesday night's semifinal match against France, Royal Air Maroc had earlier stated that it would arrange 30 additional flights. However, on Tuesday, a source at a RAM travel agency claimed that just 14 flights had been planned.
Because RAM was only able to fly the seven flights on Tuesday due to the cancellation of the seven flights scheduled for Wednesday, supporters who had previously reserved match tickets or hotel rooms were unable to travel.
RAM apologized to customers and announced that it will refund airline tickets.
A request for comment from Reuters was not immediately answered by the RAM spokesperson. A request for comment from Reuters was not immediately answered by Qatar Airways.
