Cheap flights from London to Ghana from £317

When you fly to Ghana from London, you can choose to board at any of three airports in the city. The most common routes leave from London Heathrow Airport (LHR), which is of course the busiest airport in the UK with the most expansive facilities. Other routes fly out from London City Airport (LCY), which isn’t as busy, and there are also a number of flights that you can board at London Stansted Airport (STN). You’ll find a mixture of direct routes, and ones that make one, two or even three stops on Cheapflights, all of which land at Ghana’s principal international airport, Accra Kotoka International Airport (ACC). As the only international airport serving the country, it handles millions of passengers annually and has all the facilities you need, including VIP areas. In both 2019 and 2020 it was named "Best Airport in Africa" by the Airports Council International.

If you want to catch a direct flight from London to Accra Kotoka International Airport, you’ll need to fly out of London Heathrow Airport. This direct route is operated by British Airways, and is the quickest way to fly between the two countries. The flight will typically take you just under 7h, and the price difference between a standard one-stop flight and a direct flight is usually a little cheaper. It will trim about 3-4h off the standard total flight time, which is a significant difference and well worth it if you want to get to Ghana quickly. Business travellers often find this route option particularly attractive.

When flying between London and Accra your departure airport will depend on the route that you’ve booked. The routes out of London City Airport are all operated by KLM, with either one stop at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) or a two-stop flight. The latter lands first at AMS and then flies to Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) and on to Kotoka International Airport (ACC). London Heathrow offers mostly one-stop routes, the most numerous flown by KLM and Turkish Airlines. With the latter you’ll make a stopover at Istanbul Airport (IST) and the KLM flight will stop over at Amsterdam Schiphol. The routes from London Stansted all make three stops, and are most commonly flown by Ryanair to Palermo Punta Raisi Airport (PMO) for a change to Wizz Air and the next leg to Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP). Then you’ll change airlines again and fly on Brussels Airlines to Brussels Bruxelles-National (BRU) from where you’ll fly on to Accra Kokota.
