	Ghana Airways Passenger Opinions about Ghana Airways standards
		Ghana Airways denied to pay a flight ticket from Hamburg to Dusseldorf, after an hour they organized a bus and I had to travel in a small shuttle bus 4 hours to Dusseldorf.
		Ghana Airways is for us, in fact it is for Ghanaians and I hope the criticisms and comments made should be taken seriously by the officials.
		Having said this, Ghana airways is also struggling in the international market with fierce competition from British Airways etc. In relative terms, the airways is not doing bad if we should compare their service to Nigeria Airways and the like.
