DUBAI, United Arab Emirates, Feb. 12, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Boeing [NYSE: BA] today announced an agreement with Royal Air Maroc to use a suite of Boeing AnalytX-powered crew solutions to bring greater efficiency to the airline's planning and operations. The airline will be the first in Africa to use the advanced solutions, which include Crew Pairing, Crew Rostering and Crew Tracking — with options to add modules in the future.

"We are excited to bring the most advanced data analytics capabilities to support Morocco's flag carrier," said Ihssane Mounir, senior vice president of Commercial Sales & Marketing for The Boeing Company.
