The Black Stars left for their pre-World Cup training camp in Rotterdam on Saturday night without influential midfielder Sulley Muntari.
The AC Milan star was not seen at the airport as the Black Stars team made their way into a KLM flight to Amsterdam at the Kotoka International Airport.
Sports Minister Elvis Afriyie Ankrah and Ghana FA boss Kwesi Appiah later arrived to share their final words with the players before they boarded the flight.
The GFA boss did not travel with the side but is expected to join the camp in Rotterdam by Tuesday.
Some members of the technical team also failed to make the trip on Saturday night.
The Black Stars were led by coach Kwesi Appiah and his assistant Maxwell Konadu.
The rest are Daniel Opare, Fatau Dauda, Harrison Afful, Jeffrey Schlupp, Christian Atsu, Rashid Sumaila, Afriyie Acquah, John Boye, Kwadwo Asamoah and Rabiu Mohammed.
Midfielder Mubarak Wakaso was at the airport but may not have made the trip with the Black Stars team after he was detected to have left behind a vital travel document.
Team doctor Baba Adamu, goalkeeper's trainer Nassam Yakubu and Ghana FA spokesman Ibrahim Sannie Daara also made the trip.
The team is expected to arrive in Amsterdam early Sunday morning to join a waiting bus to Rotterdam.
