The national carrier, Ghana Airways will resume flight operations to the United States, today, Spet. 18. Two flights will be leaving for Baltimore and New York. Hundreds of Ghana Airways passengers, including their crew are stranded in both Accra and the United States following Tuesday’s attack on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon. A Ghana Airways source told JOYFM that passengers with confirmed tickets travelling this week are to re-confirm their tickets again.
The flight to Baltimore on Tuesday, will be scheduled for those who should have travelled last Wednesday 12th September on flight 130. However those who should have travelled on Saturday 15th September on flight 160 are to stand by in case there is room for additional passengers.
The Federal Aviation Administration began conducting security checks on airports and air carriers as part of its tightened security measures for flights to and from the United States following last Tuesday’s terrorist attacks. The Kotoka International Airport and Ghana Airways are among a number of Airports and flights certified to begin flights to the United States.
