In 2017, President Akufo-Addo announced that Gyan had acquired a license to operate an airline in the country.

In a statement, the management of the airline said it will operate from Ghana, contrary to reports that it will be headquartered abroad.
It said BabyJet Airlines has “neither considered nor taken any decision to relocate its operational HQ outside Ghana."
The statement added: "The Can-Do spirit that has always defined Asamoah Gyan, will ensure that together with his Management Team, the smooth operation of the BabyJet Airline with its HQ in Ghana kicks off shortly.
“Management of Baby Jet Airlines still believes in operationalizing its service in Ghana and has neither considered nor taken a decision to relocate its operational Headquarters outside Ghana.”
