Sorry if this is too off-topic, but since we had such a great time in Morocco I thought I would share a little:

We stayed at a great Riad in the middle of the medina. Its run by a young French couple and they provided excellent recommendations of where to eat, what to see and had a good contact for a taximan that picked us up at the RBA airport (~$20) and walked us an our luggage from the parking lot on the outside of the medina through the winding alleys to the Riad (glad we had him to show us the route). Very reasonable accomodation at around ~70€/night incl breakfast (we had the largest room - private bath/ wifi) and it was a nice mix to stay in the medina versus the large resort we stayed at in Marrakech. http://riadmarhaba.blogspot.com/

Just an FYI Rabat was very different from both Casablanca and Marrakech (the other places we visited in Morocco) in that hardly anyone spoke English. French and Arabic were essentially it as they don't really have an international tourism focus. My wife and I enjoyed this alot to be thrown into hustle and bustle of the medina, but if thats makes one uncomfortable just be aware going into it.

From the Rabat medina we walked several times the 10-15 minutes to the train station which easily connects Rabat to Casablanca (60 mins) and the rest of Morocco (Marrakech 4 hrs).


Regarding lounge access in Morocco: If you leave from CMN on AF in J you can access the Royal Air Maroc lounge which was quite large and had a decent spread.

With the many options that Air France provides into both CMN & RBA (+AZ options) I really think that 100k in J is a fantastic value and we can't wait to return to Morocco and burn some more Skypesos!^^^

Our previous award booking was:

SFO-CDG-PRG (destination)
PRG-CDG-RBA (stop-over)
CMN-CDG-AMS (23hr layover)
AMS-SFO (KL MD-11 awesome!)

nearly maxed out the 8 flights the DL allows on awards (got 7) for 100k + $120tx ea. This was all originally booked using multi-city feature on dl.com
