Location: Ghana
Event: Updated U.S. Embassy Repatriation Flight Information
Flights on all commercial airlines in and out of Ghana have been cancelled. U.S. citizens and LPRs still seeking emergency repatriation should NOT go to the airport or the U.S. Embassy.
While we do not anticipate additional chartered repatriation flights from Ghana to the United States, we continue to collect details of U.S. citizens and LPRs who are interested in such flights.
Each U.S. citizen or LPR traveler who wishes to be considered for any future flights must complete the online request form available here. Do this EVEN IF YOU HAVE ALREADY SENT YOUR PERSONAL DETAILS to us via email. Submit one form per person, and please do NOT call or email the Embassy to confirm receipt of your request. It is only necessary to complete the form once per person.
Unless you receive an email from U.S Embassy Accra, using an email address ending in @state.gov and instructing you to come to the airport, please do not come to the Embassy or go to the airport.
