A major step has been taken towards reviving Ghana’s national airline project, with American aerospace company Boeing expressing its readiness to provide technical support for the establishment and operation of the proposed carrier.
The commitment follows a meeting between President John Dramani Mahama and a delegation from Boeing, which is offering technical assistance to help Ghana re-enter the national airline business.
During the engagement, the parties agreed on a roadmap to guide the project, including the selection of strategic and technical partners, securing an Air Operator Certificate, determining the appropriate aircraft fleet and arranging financing.
The Boeing delegation assured President Mahama of its continued involvement throughout the process, covering both the establishment and operational stages of the airline.
The proposed carrier is expected to improve the use of Ghana’s airport infrastructure, support Accra’s ambition to become a major aviation hub in West Africa and generate employment opportunities across the aviation industry.
President Mahama has previously expressed confidence that the country will have a national airline operating before the end of his tenure in January 2029.
