Air Transat Adds Fourth African Destination

Air Transat continues to announce new routes for its summer 2026 schedule. The latest? Accra, Ghana. It’s the fourth African destination for the airline, joining just-announced Dakar, Senegal and Agadir, Morocco plus the well-established route to Marrakech. 

“Air Transat flights from Toronto, Canada to Accra, Ghana are not mere flights in the skies, but a connection between aspirations and reality,” says the Honourable Joseph Bukari Nikpe, Minister for Transport, Republic of Ghana.

The route will fly non-stop between Toronto Pearson (YYZ) to Accra (ACC) from June 17 to Oct. 22, 2026, with two weekly flights on Wednesdays and Sundays.

“We are honoured to be the first and only airline to offer a direct connection between Canada and Ghana,” said Sebastian Ponce, Chief Revenue Officer at Transat. “This non-stop service between Toronto and Accra aligns with our growth strategy on the African continent and directly responds to the needs of the Ghanaian diaspora in Ontario as well as the increasing interest in travelling to Ghana. It will also provide travellers with an entirely new, simplified connectivity option, eliminating the long European layovers that were previously required.”
