    Don't just be a " sit in the office CEO". Be an all hands on deck CEO like a White man just for your business to prosper. Ghanaians are not serious when it comes to setting up businesses. They tend to be bossy while the bus ...

    THE DOWNFALL OF GHANA AIRWAYS OR GIA IS AS RESULT OF INCONPETENCY, GREED, CORRUPT AND UNACCOUNTABILITY. LACK OF DISPLINE LIKE ANY OTHER BUSINESS AND STEALING, GIVING FREE TICKETS TO FRIENDS, FAMILY, GIRLFRIENDS WHICH GHANAIAN ...

    Congratulations to Eagle Atlantic. Despite all the doom Sayers, for cheap political reasons, Ghana's future is bright. I hope you start flying to the U.S. soon. I miss my gari foto and tilapia.

    What we really need now is an International Airline that can fly us to and fro Accra and London or America.

  • Dr. med.William Acquah,Germany 10 years ago

    We also need a national airline which can connect Europe to benefit the numerous diasporan Ghanaians.An efficient and reliable airline will be patronized by Ghanaians all over in Europe and elsewhere!

    Hope the pilots receive proper professional training and use a good training provider. Typically start-ups "save" money here and the pax pay the consequences. If you cannot afford training you should not be in this business.

  • Iddisah-- Lekpe 10 years ago

    Is this a national carrier or someone's private carrier ? If it is replacing the Ghana Airways and co then it should be Ghana Airways and not Eagle whatever. It is tie we all stop this stealing and do the right thing.

  • g dot hana (BP) 10 years ago

    The MD80 is a good and reliable aircraft. Yes European operators have sold their MD80's because of noise restrictions. As long as the maintenance is done well there is no problem. They are affordable to lease/buy and easy to ...
