Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) Welcomes Delta Air Lines’ Resumption of the Atlanta–Accra–Atlanta Route
Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL) excitedly welcomed the inaugural flight marking Delta Air Lines’ resumption of its Atlanta–Accra–Atlanta service. A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held at the boarding gate on Tuesday, 2nd December 2025, at Kotoka International Airport to commemorate this significant occasion.
The launch of this seasonal direct service offers Ghanaian travellers enhanced connectivity and convenience, linking Accra directly to Atlanta—one of the busiest aviation hubs in the United States. With a large Ghanaian population residing in Atlanta, this renewed service makes strong business sense for both GACL and Delta Air Lines, and is expected to meet growing travel demand between the two cities.
Dignitaries present at the event included:
Mrs. Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare, Managing Director, GACL
Rev. Stephen Wilfred Arthur, Director-General, Ghana Civil Aviation Authority
Mr. Rolf Olson, Chargé d’Affaires, United States Embassy in Ghana
Mrs. Maame Efua Houadjeto, Chief Executive Officer, Ghana Tourism Authority
Ms. Eloina Baddoo, GSA General Manager, Delta Air Lines
Doris Kafui Afanyedey – CEO American Chamber of Commerce in Ghana
Flight Schedule:
Arrival: 9:25 a.m.
Departure: 11:35 a.m.
In her remarks, Mrs. Yvonne Nana Afriyie Opare reaffirmed GACL’s readiness to welcome additional route expansions and highlighted the company’s expectation that Delta Air Lines will maintain high standards of service, delivering timely, seamless, and efficient travel experiences for all passengers.
GACL extends its best wishes to Delta Air Lines and looks forward to supporting the airline’s continued growth and successful operations out of Accra.
