United Nigeria Airlines has finalized plans to begin regional flight operations between Abuja, Lagos, and Accra, Ghana.
According to the airline, the inaugural flight, NUA 0590, is scheduled for Monday, November 10, 2025.
The flight will depart the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, at 10:35 a.m. and arrive at the Kotoka International Airport in Accra, marking a new milestone for the airline and a boost for West African air travel.
In a statement, United Nigeria Airlines described the development as a “historic operation,” emphasizing that it represents a direct capital-to-capital service between Abuja and Accra by a Nigerian carrier.
The airline added that the new route aligns with its vision of promoting regional integration, trade, tourism, and cultural exchange across West Africa.
The Accra service will also be the airline’s first international route since it commenced commercial operations in February 2021.
“The Accra route is believed to be a natural progression of United Nigeria Airlines mission to unite communities and economies across Africa. The launch of the Accra route reflects United Nigeria Airlines commitment to our mission statement, Flying to Unite. With this expansion, we reinforce our core values as a unifier of people, businesses, and opportunities across the region and beyond.
“This inaugural regional flight is not merely a business expansion; it is a bridge between nations. United Nigeria Airlines is proud to play a role in deepening economic, social, and cultural ties within West Africa. Our pledge remains to deliver safe, reliable and world-class service as we continue to expand our footprint across the continent.”
