Northern Pilgrims to Fly From Tamale Airport to Madina
Muslim pilgrims from the three northern regions who will be traveling to Mecca from Ghana for this year’s religious exercise will be airlifted straight from the upgraded Tamale airport.
By this, travelers to the Holy Land will no longer be required to travel to be camped in Hajj Villages in Accra before embarking on their trip.
The Chairman of National Hajj Board Alhaji Abdul-Rauf Tanko disclosed that 3 flights with an average capacity of 500 passengers will fly directly from Tamale to Madina in Saudi Arabia.
The first flight from Tamale is scheduled to leave on 20th August, 2016.
The fare according to him has remained unchanged since 2013.
