The “Friends of the Moroccan People” association has called on maritime transport companies, including Balearia Tanger, to regulate their ticket prices during the “Marhaba 2025” crossing period. The association anticipates a significant increase in the number of vehicles and travelers this year, along with a noticeable rise in freight traffic.
The association also urged companies like Balearia Tanger to adhere to existing regulations regarding compensation for flight delays or cancellations. It noted that travelers’ rights are often overlooked, making it difficult for them to seek compensation due to a lack of knowledge or time constraints.
In a statement received by “Tanger 7,” the association emphasized the necessity of complying with these regulations to ensure genuine guarantees for travelers and achieve the required fairness.
Recently, citizens have lodged complaints against the maritime company Balearia concerning rising ticket prices. These complaints were presented by parliament member Idris Saour Al-Mansouri to the Minister of Transport and Logistics.
The parliament member stated that users of the maritime service linking Tangier and Tarifa, operated by Balearia, were shocked by the skyrocketing ticket prices, despite a noticeable decrease in fuel prices in the international market.
