Landing at Marrakech Menara Airport (RAK) with family gear or sports luggage is easy—if your van/9-seater delivery is planned like a logistics job, not “just a pickup”. The main problems we see are simple: too many big suitcases for a full 9 seats, a stroller that doesn’t fold quickly, or golf bags arriving oversized with no space left in the rear. This guide shows you how to book the right vehicle, pack smart, and make your airport handover smooth and fast—especially when you arrive with luggage + stroller + golf bags.

1) Quick Overview: What We Need Before Airport Delivery
To match you with the correct van or 9-seater at Marrakech Airport, we only need a few details—send them on WhatsApp when you book:
- Landing time + flight number (so we sync with delays)
- Passengers: adults / kids / infants
- Luggage count: small cabin bags vs large suitcases
- Special items: stroller, car seat, golf bag(s), wheelchair, surfboard
- Destination: Medina riad, Guéliz, Hivernage, Palmeraie, or outside Marrakech
- Your “must-have”: extra cargo space or “everyone sits together”
If you’re arriving with special baggage for a baby (stroller/bassinet) or sports gear, airlines can treat these items differently; for example, Royal Air Maroc lists stroller/bassinet and sports equipment conditions in its baggage guidance.
2) Luggage Reality in Vans & 9-Seaters (The Rule Most Travelers Miss)
Here’s the truth: a “9-seater” can carry 9 people, but not always 9 people + 9 big suitcases.
The “9 People = Small Trunk” rule
Most 9-seaters keep a usable trunk when you’re 7–8 passengers, but once you fill all seats, the rear space becomes limited. That’s why we plan your airport delivery based on passenger + luggage, not passenger only.
Practical guide (fast planning)
| Your group | Best setup at RAK | Why it works |
|---|---|---|
| 4–5 pax + lots of luggage | 9-seater / long van | Big trunk stays available |
| 6–7 pax + mixed luggage | 9-seater | Balanced seats + cargo |
| 8–9 pax + big suitcases | long van / trailer-style packing | Full seats reduce trunk space |
| Family + stroller + suitcases | van with flexible rear space | Stroller needs quick access |
| Golf group (bags + suitcases) | van with wide trunk | Hard cases are bulky |
MarHire tip: for airport delivery, “how many suitcases?” is not enough. We ask size: cabin / medium / large, plus any rigid items (golf hard case, stroller frame).
3) Strollers, Baby Seats & Family Airport Delivery Tips
If you arrive with kids, your goal is speed: exit, meet, load, go.
Stroller delivery: what changes at the airport
- Keep the stroller accessible, not buried under suitcases. You often need it immediately at arrivals.
- Choose the right fold type: umbrella-fold strollers load faster than full travel systems.
- Plan for Medina drop-off: many riads are reached via a short walk—stroller-ready matters.
Airline note (helps families plan)
If you’re flying with Royal Air Maroc, the airline’s guidance includes baby stroller/bassinet under special baggage scenarios (useful when you decide whether the stroller arrives at baggage belt or gate).
MarHire tip: if you have 2 strollers (twins) or a stroller + car seat, tell us early—so we send the right van configuration.
4) Golf Bags: Hard Cases, Weight & Packing Strategy
Golf luggage is the #1 “surprise space killer” in Marrakech airport deliveries.
What makes golf bags tricky
- Hard cases are long and rigid (they don’t “shape” into the trunk)
- A golf group often has bags + shoe bags + carry-ons
- Travelers underestimate how many “extras” appear at arrivals
Smart packing plan for golf arrivals
- Put shoes + small accessories inside the golf travel bag (if allowed by your airline)
- Avoid stacking fragile items on top of hard cases
- If you’re 4 golfers, assume the golf bags take the space of several large suitcases
Royal Air Maroc’s sports equipment policy includes conditions for golf bags (useful as a reference point for travelers checking airline rules). Royal Air Maroc
5) Where the Airport Handover Happens (and How to Find Your Driver Fast)
Marrakech Menara Airport is operated under ONDA’s airport network, and the most reliable way to avoid confusion is to agree on a single meeting point in advance on the official airport’s layout/flow. For reference, ONDA publishes an official page for Aéroport Marrakech – Ménara. onda.ma
What we do at MarHire (best practice):
- We confirm arrivals meeting instructions before you land
- We share vehicle details (model/class, plate info when available)
- We keep the loading simple: driver helps organize luggage fast, then you leav
6) The MarHire “No-Stress Airport Delivery” Process (Step-by-Step)
- You book your van/9-seater for Marrakech Airport delivery
- You send luggage details (including stroller/golf bags)
- We confirm the best vehicle setup for your group
- On landing, you message us “out now” (WhatsApp)
- Meet → load → go (fast handover, no wandering around)
Two official references you may find useful while planning:
- Check the official airport listing on ONDA’s Marrakech Menara Airport page
- If your trip includes sports baggage, see Royal Air Maroc’s sport equipment policy
7) Common Mistakes (That Create Delays at RAK)
- Booking “9 seats” without mentioning 9 large suitcases
- Not saying you have a stroller (especially travel systems)
- Golf hard case + full passengers (space runs out instantly)
- Waiting to message after baggage claim (meeting becomes messy)
- Medina drop-off not planned (some streets aren’t car-friendly—walking may be needed)
FAQs
Can a 9-seater fit 9 people and 9 large suitcases?
Usually not comfortably. With all seats used, trunk space is limited. If you have many large suitcases, we’ll recommend a longer van or a setup with more cargo space.
Do you help with luggage at Marrakech Airport delivery?
Yes—our team helps you load quickly and organize bulky items (stroller/golf bag) so you’re not blocking the curb.
We have a stroller and a lot of luggage—what should we book?
A van/9-seater with flexible rear space is best. Send stroller type + luggage count so we match the right configuration.
Are golf bags okay in vans from RAK?
Yes, but you must plan space. Hard cases are bulky—tell us how many golf bags and suitcases you have.
Can you deliver to a riad in the Medina after airport pickup?
Yes. If your riad is inside restricted lanes, we coordinate the closest accessible point and keep the drop-off simple.
