Uganda Airlines to Deploy Boeing 737-800 on Four Weekly Accra Flights
ACCRA, Ghana, October 22, 2026 — Uganda Airlines will deploy a Boeing 737-800 on its new four-times-weekly service to Accra from October 27, expanding its West African presence and adding capacity to air links between Ghana and East Africa.
The Entebbe-based carrier will operate the service through Lagos, Nigeria, using a Boeing 737-800.
The four weekly frequencies will provide additional travel options for passengers moving between Accra and Uganda, including business travellers, tourists and people visiting family. The service also offers connecting opportunities through Entebbe to destinations across the airline’s wider network such as Nairobi, London, Mumbai, and over 17 destinations in Africa, Middle East, ans Asia.
Uganda Airlines operates a mixed fleet that includes Bombardier CRJ-900 regional jets, Boeing 737-800s, and Airbus A330-800neo wide-body aircraft.
The Accra launch forms part of a wider push to strengthen connections between African markets. Ghana is an important commercial gateway in West Africa, while Entebbe can provide onward links to destinations in East Africa and beyond.
More frequent connections could help businesses plan regional trips with greater flexibility, support tourism operators and improve access to commercial opportunities on both sides of the continent. The route could also complement efforts to facilitate trade and investment under the African Continental Free Trade Area.
