The Manager of  Business development and Statistics of the Ghana Civil Aviation Authority, Reverend Stephen Wilfred Arthur, tells  Citi Business News all three airlines have made progress to enable them commence operations by the third quarter of this year.

“In the case of fly 540 there is a change of ownership apart from the change of name and the intent to rebrand the airline and so it had to go through some re-certification and also there are security concerns amidst other things that have to be done especially with regards to Fly 540 now Royal Fly Gh. In the case in the case of Antrak Air, there have been no changes that have been brought to our notice. I do know that they intend changing their logo and doing rebranding. City Link equally we do know that for certainty that they are making serious strides to come back before the end of the year,” he said.

“To be very buy accutane online roche objective, the second quarter will be very challenging; I would prefer looking at the third quarter looking at where they are now.” Rev. Arthur added.

It started operating internal flights from Accra to Kumasi, Takoradi and Tamale from the year 2012. The airline later introduced two sub-regional services to Abidjan and Freetown.

Antrak Air

The local airline in June 2015, announced that it was suspending its operations for three months due to a wet lease arrangement with Spanish airliner, Swift Air to use its ATR 72-500 Turbo Prop aircraft.

Although it was expected to commence operations in October 2015, it was unable to do so though it had hinted of plans to secure its own aircraft after clearing debts owed Swift Air for the wet lease agreement.
