Arriving in Ghana [Never Flying Delta to Ghana Again]
We just landed in Ghana and wanted to share our experience with traveling internationally during COVID-19 so those of you who are also planning a trip in the near future know exactly what to expect upon arriving in Ghana.
We walk you through all of the steps involved when flying into Kotoka International Airport in Accra, Ghana during this pandemic including the screening process for arrivals, the COVID testing in Ghana, and the time it takes for immigration screening.
If you are traveling internationally during Covid 19, then you may find this information super helpful. If you are arriving in Ghana in 2020, then get the website, timetable, and services offered to make your arrival in Ghana and international travel easy (especially if you’re traveling internationally with kids during COVID).
PLUS… we have quite the story to tell about flying Delta to Ghana. Based on our story, you may find you are NEVER flying Delta to Ghana, especially if you have other options. #DeltaAirlines
Delta Airlines unsatisfied customer story starts at 22:29 (if you want to skip ahead).
