Since the Emirates A380 landed at Kotoka International Airport in Accra nearly four years ago, Ghana has once more experienced a historic landing at the same location.

This time, on September 29, 2022, a British Airways A380, one of the biggest passenger planes in the world, landed in Accra, marking the nation’s historic second-time flight.

Captain Solomon Quainoo, a former Ghanaian pilot for Emirates, shared the information on Twitter on September 30. He stated, “Accra got a wonderful surprise yesterday, having a record 2nd time an A380 operated (by British Airways) into Kotoka International Airport.

The second historic landing of the largest passenger aircraft, he continued, is proof that Ghana’s primary airport, KIA, is equipped to manage such a fleet.

Captain Quainoo remarked, “Such a terrific indicator for the amazing capabilities of our home airport to handle the world’s largest passenger aircraft.”
