Morocco’s nationwide airline explained it was canceling all flights it experienced scheduled for Wednesday to carry lovers to Doha for the Planet Cup semi-remaining, citing what it mentioned was a decision by Qatari authorities.

“Subsequent the most up-to-date limits imposed by the Qatari authorities, Royal Air Maroc regrets to inform clients of the cancellation of their flights operated by Qatar Airways,” the airline stated in an emailed assertion.

The Qatari government’s intercontinental media workplace did not quickly respond to requests for remark.

Royal Air Maroc had earlier claimed it would lay on 30 additional flights to support fans get to Qatar for Wednesday night’s semi-last recreation against France but on Tuesday a supply at a RAM travel agency mentioned only 14 flights experienced been scheduled.

The cancellation of Wednesday’s seven scheduled flights implies RAM was only capable to fly the seven flights on Tuesday, leaving fans who had previously booked match tickets or resort rooms not able to travel.

RAM claimed it would reimburse air tickets and apologized to buyers.

The RAM spokesperson did not instantly react to Reuters ask for for remark. Qatar Airways did not right away answer to Reuters ask for for comment.
