The installation and fixing of signage at Accra International Airport has been fully completed, following initial delays the previous day.
According to airport authorities, the works were concluded in the early hours of Saturday, March 21, 2026, with maintenance carried out overnight to minimise disruption to passengers and airport operations.
“The maintenance, including repainting and installation, was carried out at night after the last flight due to the height of the structures and the impact on the car park area, to minimise inconvenience to the public and travelling passengers.”
Officials say the upgraded signage is expected to improve navigation within Terminal 3 and strengthen Ghana’s standing as a leading aviation hub in the sub-region.
The Ghana Airports Company Limited also expressed appreciation for public feedback, noting that input from passengers and stakeholders continues to be vital in supporting ongoing improvements across the airport.
The development comes in the wake of government’s decision to restore the airport’s original name—Accra International Airport—after years of being known as Kotoka International Airport.
In a statement issued on Monday, February 23, the Ministry of Transport explained the rationale behind the change.
It stated that the facility was previously known as Accra International Airport before its renaming, adding that the decision to revert to the original designation reflects its broader international recognition.
The Ministry further assured the public that the name change would not affect airport operations, safety standards, or international travel arrangements.
It also noted that the airport’s code under the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) remains unchanged as “ACC”.
