AWA celebrates 4 millionth passenger
Africa World Airlines celebrated its 4 millionth Passenger at the Kotoko International Airport on October 31st, 2023 since its inception in September 2012.
Mr. Rodney OlusolaAdewole, the 4 millionth Passenger who was checked in at Murtala Muhammed International Airport – Lagos, received a resounding welcome at the T3 arrival of the Kotoka International Airport.
He was presented with AWA’s miniature aircraft and four return tickets to any of the airline’s destinations.

The Chief Operating Officer, Capt. KwasiOteng gave the opening speech and the purpose of the gathering. Among the many words, he said “The 4 millionth Passenger is not just a statistic. It is a symbol of the trust, support, and relationships that have been built over the years. This milestone is a testament to our commitment to excellence, and it is the beginning of a new chapter in our airline’s journey.”
Captain Oteng added that “the journey to 4 million passengers has been incredible, but there is still much more to achieve. We are committed to raising the bar even higher, delivering unparalleled service, and creating more magical moments for our passengers.”
The Deputy Minister for Transport, Hon. Alhaji Hassan SulemanTampuli, took turns with a keynote address. He expressed that AWA’s consistent operation has led the company to be the leading airline with the highest market share in Ghana.
He added that Ghana has signed to a Single African Air Transport Market(SAATM) which will help reduce taxes when travelling by air to African countries therefore AWA should capitalise on the agreement to improve connectivity in the African region. This led Hon. AlhajiTampuli to urge AWA to acquire more fleet, increase frequency, and expand its networks.
The awardee speaking at the mini durbar organized to welcome him at the arrival hall of KotokaInternational Airport, said the acknowledgment came to him as a surprise.
