Ghanaian Government is doing a lot of effort to increase the level of tourism in the country that is why recently (3 to 4 months ago) a meeting was held between the officials of Ghana Tourist Board and Ghana International airlines. Both companies combined for promoting tourism in Ghana. No country can promote its tourism effectively without the involvement of country’s national carrier. Without offering cheap flights with high quality services, a country cannot attract tourists. A tourist must see the extreme level of hospitality right from the air so, in this concern, GIA holds an important seat. The Ghana Tourists Board was interested to see good response from the GIA side and the most intriguing thing is, GIA has proved itself in any task related to the project.

Madam Gifty Annan Myers, the Chief Executive Officer of Ghana International Airline, stated that the management of GIA is quite happy to hear that. We are highly motivated to play our role in an effective manner. The airline is devoted to its work to keep the flag of Ghana high up in the sky, she added more. There were several issues regarding stakeholders but the officials of GIA presented this idea to all stakeholders, in a beneficial way, to get the interest of all stakeholders.

However, Ghanaian Government faced many downfalls in recent years but the Ghana International Airline kept its nerves cool and did not raise airfares. Its customers showed their full confidence in the services of GIA that’s why the airline has succeeded to get a unique position among other airlines. Travelers should not expect any sort of miss happening like delaying or rescheduling because of GIA’s total quality management. The management of GIA listens to its customers in a friendly environment and tries to solve their problem with the best possible solutions.
