Well it is a TGV from Tangier to Kenitra – the display showed the speed mostly varying between 280-300kph, and I noticed a peak of 319kph.

Between Kenitra and Rabat it is merely a T, moving much more slowly.

And then between Rabat and Casablanca it is a TV, moving at between 140 and 150 kph.

2nd Class is very comfortable, everybody has a seat. Total journey time 2h10m. And it keeps closely to its timetable.
Change at Casablanca for the 30min local train out to the airport.

The 2nd class ticket cost MAD274 (~USD28): Tangier-Casablanca-CMN
Thanks for the headsup re TGV and trains.
Good to learn that it took only 30 minutes by train from city to CMN.
Safe travel.
