Morocco's strategic military air base on the Atlantic coast.

Location
Kenitra, Morocco
Kenitra Air Base (IATA: NNA, ICAO: GMMP) is a military airfield located near the city of Kenitra in northern Morocco, situated along the Atlantic coast approximately 40 kilometers north of Rabat. It serves primarily as a base for the Royal Moroccan Air Force and has historically played a significant role in the country's national defense infrastructure. The base has roots dating back to the French colonial period and was subsequently used by the United States military under bilateral agreements before being fully transferred to Moroccan control. Today it functions as an active military installation with limited or no scheduled commercial passenger services. Due to its military nature, public access and commercial operations are highly restricted, and the airport does not typically appear in civilian flight booking systems despite holding an IATA code.
Getting to & from
Kenitra city is accessible by road and rail, with the national rail network (ONCF) connecting it to Rabat and Casablanca, though ground transport to the base itself is restricted to authorized military personnel.
