What LIS to CMN looks like
The LIS to CMN sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Lisbon LIS to Casablanca CMN is a short sector of 618 km by great circle, flown nonstop 3.1 times a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 618 km, 720 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 1h 25m.
Lisbon LIS is a major hub in the network held here, 154 scheduled destinations and 367.9 departures a day. Casablanca CMN has 104 destinations and 130.1 departures a day.
Lisbon carries about 2.8 times the departures of Casablanca, so a courier who has to be rebooked has far more to work with at one end of this pair than at the other.
Casablanca runs no time shift at all of Lisbon in January and one hour behind in July, because the two ends do not change their clocks together.
The pair sits between Africa and Europe, a corridor where the site already publishes 8 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on LIS to CMN from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| LIS to CMN | 3.14 | 22 | ASL Airlines Belgium, Royal Air Maroc, TAP Air Portugal |
| CMN to LIS | 2.71 | 19 | Royal Air Maroc, TAP Air Portugal |
3 carriers are recorded on the sector, so a missed departure is normally a rebooking rather than a lost day.
At 3.1 times a day there is usually another departure within a few hours, which is what makes a same day booking on this pair realistic.
Between them the two directions put about 40.9 departures a week on LIS to CMN, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 1h 25m block time on LIS to CMN. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to LIS | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At LIS before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| LIS to CMN in the air, estimated | 85 min | 5h 55m |
| Formalities at CMN | 90 min | 7h 25m |
| Delivery run in Casablanca | 45 min | 8h 10m |
| Door to door | 490 min | 8h 10m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for LIS to CMN is 8h 10m.
A courier who leaves Lisbon at 09:00 local is on the ground in Casablanca at about 10:25 local and at the door by 12:40 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Casablanca, the last useful departure from Lisbon is around 14:20 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 59 of them join LIS to CMN.
| Connecting at | LIS to hub, flights a day | Hub to CMN, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Seville SVQ | 4 | 0.71 | 798 | 3h 10m |
| Marrakech RAK | 3.43 | 5 | 1,004 | 3h 20m |
| Malaga AGP | 3.57 | 3.29 | 933 | 3h 38m |
| Porto OPO | 11.43 | 0.71 | 1,159 | 3h 47m |
| Madrid MAD | 21 | 5.14 | 1,382 | 4h 22m |
| Alicante ALC | 1.71 | 0.57 | 1,585 | 4h 25m |
With 3.1 times a day on the nonstop, a connection here is a disruption plan rather than a routing, and it is listed because a closed runway or a cancellation wave is exactly when nobody has time to work it out.
59 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Seville SVQ, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 5 times a week.
Through SVQ the routing covers 798 km against the 618 km nonstop track and takes about 3h 10m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 45m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Marrakech RAK at 3h 20m and Malaga AGP at 3h 38m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
If nothing suitable leaves Lisbon, Faro FAO is 222 km away by great circle and carries 87 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.
If nothing suitable leaves Casablanca, Rabat RBA is 109 km away by great circle and carries 43 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for LIS to CMN in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
