Not sure is this is feasible with a 757. They are currently able to operate to EU because they can always schedule a fuel stop in Gander, etc. if necessary due to head winds. However, from Morocco, there isn't a good choice for a fuel stop along the way heading west. (MAYBE Azores but it would have to be early in the flight. Not sure of economics/safety of that)
