GACL Partners Ethiopian Airlines to Launch Direct Kumasi-London Flight
The Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), in collaboration with Ethiopian Airlines, has announced the launch of a direct flight service connecting the Prempeh I International Airport in Kumasi to Gatwick Airport in London.
Set to commence on December 3, 2024, this new route marks a historic milestone, providing international travel options directly from the Ashanti Region for the first time.
The inaugural flight is scheduled to depart Gatwick Airport at 2:10 am and arrive in Kumasi at 9:05 am, offering passengers a streamlined travel experience between the two destinations.
This strategic initiative is poised to boost trade, tourism, and investment opportunities, enhancing economic ties between Ghana and the UK.
It also offers a convenient alternative for travelers in the Ashanti Region, eliminating the need to transit through Accra for international journeys.
The collaboration reflects GACL’s commitment to expanding Ghana’s aviation infrastructure and services, further solidifying Kumasi’s position as a growing hub for international connectivity.
