Accra-Kumasi flight lands in Abidjan due to bad weather

Instead of Kumasi Airport, PassionAir flight OP152 landed in Abidjan.

PassionAir, a Ghanaian domestic airline, reports that their flight OP152, which took off from Accra for Kumasi on April 17, 2021, landed at the Félix Houphout-Boigny International Airport due to deteriorating weather conditions at the Kumasi airport.

The diversion was required, according to the company, because the weather allowed a secure landing in Abidjan, and “the safety of our passengers, crew, and equipment is paramount.”

In a statement obtained by buzzgh.com, the firm said,

“Passengers were provided with refreshments on the ground and the flight departed Abidjan at 11.20pm when the weather had improved en-route to Accra.
