Virgin increases Ghana services
Published: 23/02/2012 - Filed under: News »
Virgin Atlantic is to add two additional frequencies to its existing London Heathrow-Accra route from March 26.
The carrier will move to a five times-weekly service, citing growth of over 50 per cent in premium economy and Upper Class bookings on the route over the last six months.
The new flights will operate on Wednesday and Saturday, adding to existing services on Thursday, Friday and Sunday.
Virgin launched flights to Ghana in May 2010, competing with British Airways on the Heathrow-Accra route (see online news May 25, 2010).
