## Description

Africa World Airlines and PassionAir anchor the schedule at Kumasi Airport (KMS), the gateway to Ghana's Ashanti capital and its second-largest city. Traffic is domestic, focused on the Accra shuttle, while an ongoing upgrade aims to lengthen the runway for larger aircraft and eventual international service. No dedicated freighters operate here; cargo travels in passenger holds or moves through Kotoka International (ACC). Kumasi anchors regional trade and hosts Kejetia, one of West Africa's largest markets.
