The airline has consistently seen growth in both frequencies of flights and route network making it profitable. This is a great achievement for an airline that has been operating for barely a decade. AWA became a full member of IATA in 2017 and is also IOSA certified.
As part of its growth as an airline, AWA signed partnerships with various International Airlines such as South African Airways, Emirates, Brussels Airlines, ASKY Airlines and Ethiopian Airlines. By doing this they aim to connecting more passengers successfully.
The AWA commitment to customers is evident in the awards that they have been humbled to receive through the years, including multiple “Domestic Airline of the Year”, “Best Airline in West Africa”, and “Best Passenger Experience” awards as chosen by the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIMG), Ghana Tourism Board, National Aviation Awards, and others.
In 2019, AWA also received an award from Embraer in recognition of reliability in data quality, and were inducted into the CIMG Hall of Fame after being voted “Best Domestic Airline” for 5 consecutive years in Ghana.
The Ghanaian airline also serves Lagos and Abuja in Nigeria, Monrovia in Liberia as well as Freetown in Sierra Leone. It is expected that the airline will expand its operations to Cote D’Ivoire soon, with the dream of connecting Africa with the rest of the World.
