Ghana Airports Company Limited has begun planning a dedicated domestic terminal for Kumasi's Prempeh I International Airport to separate passenger operations and reduce congestion at the facility. Finance Minister Cassiel Ato Forson told parliament the project supports broader efforts to expand aviation capacity and attract additional carriers to regional airports beyond Accra.
The Ashanti regional capital received an ultra-modern international terminal building that cost over €66 million, with capacity for one million annual passengers. Ongoing runway expansion work will extend the strip from 1,981 meters to at least 2,300 meters, enabling medium-haul regional jet operations and limited international service.
Officials expect the separate domestic facility will improve passenger flow and turnaround efficiency during peak travel periods while complementing the existing international terminal infrastructure.
