ghana to uganda
hello, i am just wondering if i there are any airlines that have
direct flights that i can take from accra to kampala or even nairobi. secondly is there a web site that is searchable for these flights. i made the mistake of trying Expedia and Priceline. Expedia doesn't even recognize Accra as an airport. pathetic. |

As far as I know (I tried to fly from Accra to Entebbe in 2002) there
are no direct flights. I flew South African Airways via Johannesburg. SAA no longer flies directly between Jhb and Entebbe, but goes via Nairobi. If you can get a flight from Accra to Nairobi, it will be easy to get to Kampala from there. BTW, I think that Accra and Kampala are probably the two most pleasant cities in Africa.

They have a website but I`m including a section of an article I found on google.com. I`ve been from Heathrow to Nairobi with them and they were fine. Pat. Twice-weekly flight to Accra, Ghana in West Africa Kenya Airways will be operating direct flights to the Ghanaian capital from Nairobi every Monday and Saturday using the new 737-700. The flights will depart Nairobi at 16.55 on Mondays and 8.30 on Saturdays. Kenya Airways has expanded its route network with a view to improving its market position in Africa and worldwide. Network development has further been enhanced through cooperation with other African airlines like Air Tanzania, Air Malawi and Air Botswana. Other destinations in West Africa are Douala, Lagos, Yaounde and Abidjan. ''The Most Promising African Airline'' Kenya Airways was voted the Most Promising African Airline by the Aviation and Allied Business Update, the premier aviation industry journal in Nigeria. The award was given to Kenya Airways for its resilience and consistency in growth and operational efficiency. During the award ceremony held in Abuja, Nigeria, it was termed ''the fastest growing airline in Africa and a success story of privatization''. Issues highlighted included its modern fleet, impressive financial performance, route network, staff training and information technology. -- Pat Anderson |
