Mr Kwaku Ofori Asiamah, the Minister of Transport, has assured Parliament that the Ministry will continue to engage Delta Airlines to release new aircraft for its operations in Ghana.

The Minister said his team had had discussions with officials of the Airline to improve its service on the Accra-New York route, which had come under criticism.

This follows an urgent question by Alhaji Mohammed-Mubarak Muntaka, the Member of Parliament (MP) for Asawase, as to what led to Delta Airlines flight from Accra to New York making an emergency landing at Praia Da Vitoria (a municipality in the Portuguese archipelago of the Azores).
