Goldstar Air keeps pushing for round-the-clock cargo operations across West Africa. The airline holds licenses from Ghana Civil Aviation Authority to fly passengers and freight. Company leaders claim their 24-hour service plan could boost Ghana's global trade connections. Eric Bannerman runs the company and wants faster cargo movement for businesses. The airline sees itself as a major player for moving goods between continents.
Ghana Civil Aviation Authority has delayed safety certificates for wide-body planes over eight years. Goldstar Air complains about the slow approval process for their bigger aircraft. The company needs these certificates to start international cargo flights. Officials blame the delay on finding qualified third-party inspectors. Aviation bosses say wide-body plane requirements are tougher than smaller aircraft rules.
Bannerman promises two million new jobs from the expanded cargo business. The airline plans electric motorcycles and cars for package delivery services. Workers would move packages around cities using GPS tracking devices. Ghana Post might partner with Goldstar Air for mail services nationwide. The company wants to copy successful postal systems from America.
Flight routes would connect Accra to Washington, Dubai, Toronto, and other major cities. Kumasi flights would reach Rome, Madrid, Hamburg, London, and several European destinations. Tamale would become a maintenance hub with cargo facilities and pilot training schools. Ho and Wa would get charter flights and religious travel services. The airline claims Ghana sits perfectly between Africa and global shipping routes.
