Ghana is one of the best aviation regions in West Africa, that according to International Air Transport Association (IATA).

The country carries the second highest number of passengers in West Africa after Nigeria and this is in spite of the fact that Ghana has no airline of substance dedicated to flying in the region or intercontinental.

The achievement is due to the pro-activeness of the Ghana Civil Aviation Authority and the Ghana Airports Company.

President of IATA for Africa, Raphael Kuuchi, said Ghana has all it takes to become one of the best Aviation hubs in the region.

“Ghana is one of the best Aviation regions in Africa and it is doing well ,which is a credit to the Ghana Civil Aviation Authority and the Ghana Airport Company Limited by facilitating market access and opening the country to other Airlines that come to do business.

“Ghana has all it takes to become one of the best Aviation hubs in the region, it is just trying to make sure government creates an enabling environment, government takes away all the obstacles”.
