Emirates, the fast-growing Dubai-based international airline, has announced that it will boost services later this month to the West African city of Accra with two non-stop flights each week, in addition to the existing weekly four   via Lagos. 

 

The extra twice-weekly services between Dubai and the Ghanaian capital will start on 27th March, marking the first ever non-stop connection between the Gulf region and Accra. The additional flights will take 8hrs 30 min and result in increases of 59 per cent in passenger capacity and 33 per cent in cargo.
