Virgin Atlantic to relaunch daily flights between Accra and London

For the first time since 2013, daily flights will resume from Kotoka International Airport in May 2025 providing much-needed competition and choice on the route.

A statement issued in Accra by the Airline said the new service aimed to respond to the increasing demand to visit friends and relatives.

It said the UK was home to the third largest Ghanaian diaspora in the world, with customers expected to connect through London onto Virgin Atlantic’s US route network to destinations including New York, Boston, Washington DC, Miami and Los Angeles.

The statement said launching on May 1, 2025, the daily service would operate on a mix of our A330-300 and A330-900neo aircraft, each boasting the airline’s Upper Class, Premium and Economy Delight, Classic and Light cabins, as well as an onboard social space.

“Accra is expected to be a strong cargo route and Virgin Atlantic will offer 30 tonnes of capacity on each flight, carrying goods such as fresh produce between Ghana and key markets in the UK and US,” it added.
