After a Royal Air Maroc flight, that was carrying the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, couldn’t make it, Saturday, on time to Morocco, the national carrier lost the luggage of the British royal family’s photographers.
Three British photographers, who were assigned to take photos of the royal couple while visiting the Kingdom, reported on Twitter that they lost their suitcases while flying with the Moroccan airline.
Royal photographer Mark Cuthbert wrote, Sunday, that Royal Air Maroc has a «woeful service». «7 media plus BBC had no bags, 5 gone whole trip without them», he said on Twitter, adding that «Air Maroc even refuse to give lost baggage reference».

Moreover, Arthur Edwards, who has been a royal photographer at The Sun since 1977, has also lost his luggage traveling with RAM. «I checked in LHR last Friday and in spite of many visits to Rabat lost luggage I was told that the bag is still at Heathrow. I hope when I get to London tonight my bag is not on its way to Morocco», he wrote on Twitter.
