Accra Travel Essentials
Ghana’s premier terminal, Kotoka International Airport is the key gateway to the capital city of Accra. It serves as the hub for Arik Air. Direct flights to this airport from UK’s London Heathrow are operated by British Airways and American Airlines. These are not the only carriers that fly on Heathrow-Accra route. Other popular ones are Turkish Airlines, Ethiopian Airlines, Kenya Airways and South African Airways but they stop at their respective hubs. Unlike other African cities, Accra is quite safe. But while visiting beaches or markets, avoid carrying expensive valuables and belongings. Also, refrain from drinking tap water and dining at roadside stalls.
