The Pilgrims Affairs Office of Ghana (PAOG) has announced changes to the check-in and departure schedule for the 8th Hajj flight scheduled for Monday, May 18, 2026, at the Kotoka International Airport in Accra.
According to a statement issued by the Communications Directorate of PAOG, the adjustments were necessitated by unforeseen technical challenges affecting flight operations for today’s pilgrimage movement.

Under the revised schedule, check-in for pilgrims will commence at 11:00 a.m., while the departure of the flight has been rescheduled to 6:00 p.m.
PAOG expressed regret over the inconvenience caused by the sudden changes and assured pilgrims and stakeholders that every effort is being made to ensure a smooth and safe travel process.
