Passion Air Slashes Domestic Fares by 10% as Ghana’s Cedi Strengthens
Passion Air responds to cedi’s rise by lowering fares, making domestic air travel more affordable for Ghanaians
- Passion Air cuts domestic fares by 10%, effective June 17, 2025
- Fare reduction follows Ghanaian cedi’s strengthening against major currencies
- Move aligns with Transport Minister’s call to adjust prices in line with currency gains
Passion Air has announced a 10% cut in airfares on all its domestic flights, effective June 17, 2025. This price reduction comes as the Ghanaian cedi gains strength against key international currencies, helping local airlines reduce operational costs.
The move follows a recent call by Transport Minister Joseph Bukari Nikpe during a Ghana Civil Aviation Authority event on June 11, where he encouraged domestic carriers to align ticket prices with the improving value of the cedi.
This fare drop marks Passion Air’s first major response to the government’s appeal and could signal a new trend in pricing strategies within Ghana’s domestic aviation sector.
In a statement on Facebook, Passion Air explained that the fare adjustment aims to pass cost savings directly to passengers without compromising service quality.
“Thanks to the recent appreciation of the cedi, we are proud to offer our customers lower fares. At Passion Air, we are committed to delivering affordable and competitive prices while upholding the highest standards of safety and comfort,” the airline said.
As Ghana’s domestic aviation market adapts to currency shifts, Passion Air is leading the way in making air travel more accessible and budget-friendly for all Ghanaians.
