Air Uganda is expected to commence operations to Ghana in October 2026, while Etihad Airways is scheduled to begin operations in March 2027.

Managing Director of the Ghana Airports Company Limited (GACL), Yvonne Afriyie Opare, disclosed this at the sod-cutting ceremony for the construction of a Multi-Tiered, Multi-Purpose Car Park and Airport Hotels Complex at the Accra International Airport.

According to her, the entry of the two airlines will strengthen Ghana’s connectivity with key destinations and contribute to the steady growth of operations at the airport.

In October this year [2026], we’ll be welcoming Air Uganda and in March of next year [2027], we’ll be welcoming Etihad Airways. This speaks to the steady growth of operations at the Accra International Airport,” she said.

Opare said the planned expansion of airport infrastructure was necessary to meet the growing demand for air travel and improve the overall passenger experience.

The Multi-Tiered, Multi-Purpose Car Park and Airport Hotels Complex is expected to expand the airport’s facilities by providing additional parking capacity and accommodation for passengers, airline crew and other airport users.

The project will form part of efforts to modernise the airport and improve the services and facilities available to travellers as passenger traffic continues to grow.

Fitch Solutions retains 2025 growth rate projection at 4.2%

 Fitch Solutions has reaffirmed its projection that Ghana’s economy will expand by 4.2% in 2025. This estimate slightly exceeds the International Monetary Fund’s forecast of 4% and the World Bank’s projection of 3.9%. The UK-based research firm attributes its outlook to historically high gold prices, which are expected to cushion the Ghanaian economy against a global slowdown triggered by rising tariffs. Higher gold prices are anticipated to strengthen government revenue, enhance foreign exchange earnings, and help sustain currency stability.

Moreover, the US constitutes only about 4% to 5% of Ghana’s total exports. In contrast, Ghana’s trade relations are more heavily oriented toward China and European countries, particul...

BoG injects $20m into FX market to support 11 BDCs

  The Bank of Ghana (BoG) has injected $20 million into the foreign exchange market in the latest round of its forward FX auction targeted at Bulk Oil Distribution Companies (BDCs).

By directly supplying FX to BDCs, the central bank seeks to ease pressure on the interbank market, guarantee the uninterrupted flow of petroleum products, and mitigate the pass-through effects of exchange rate fluctuations on fuel prices. The $20 million disbursement forms part of a $120 million programme for th...
