Escalation via SÖP (Schlichtungsstelle für den öffentlichen Personenverkehr) or LBA.
Does EU261 apply to Royal Air Maroc from Frankfurt?
Yes. EU261 applies to all carriers departing from EU airports, including Royal Air Maroc. A Frankfurt FRA departure delayed 3+ hours at Marrakech entitles each passenger to €400.

Condor cancelled my Frankfurt–Marrakech flight — can I claim?
Yes. Condor is a German EU-registered carrier. EU261 applies to Condor flights in both directions: Frankfurt → Marrakech and Marrakech → Frankfurt. Cancelled with less than 14 days' notice means €400 per person plus refund or re-routing. Escalate to SÖP (Germany's ADR scheme) if Condor rejects the claim. SÖP decisions are binding on Condor.
How do I escalate a rejected Royal Air Maroc claim from Frankfurt?
Escalate to SÖP (Schlichtungsstelle für den öffentlichen Personenverkehr) — Germany's aviation ADR scheme — or file with LBA (Luftfahrt-Bundesamt), the German aviation authority. Royal Air Maroc participates in SÖP. Germany's 3-year limitation period gives you time, but gather evidence (boarding pass, booking, delay confirmation) promptly.
