Air Greenland

Air Greenland flights

Air Greenland is still partly owned by the mighty SAS Scandinavian Airlines but it was announced in spring 2007 that this share holding is planned to be sold.

Internationally Air Greenland connects the island to Copenhagen from Kangerlussuaq, Nuuk and Narsarsuaq. Many towns and cities are accessible only by air, with Air Greenland operating to a total of 63 domestic destinations. The airline has recently acquired Air Alpha Greenland which has added to the increase in domestic destinations served and company’s facilities in Ilulissat and 4 helicopters are included in the deal.

Air Greenland connects Greenland

Air Greenland is a great airline which has two essential roles: one, in connecting this amazing island with the outside world via Copenhagen in Demark, and two, flying between the many small population centres around the coastline of Greenland. Tourism is growing rapidly as more people become interested in this remote place, which is constantly in the news as being one place on earth where the changes taking place due to climate change are clearly evident.

In June 2007 a new dynamic Chief Executive was appointed to oversee a new independent era for the airline. With its close neighbour Iceland enjoying tremendous success in attracting tourists from all over the world, we expect Air Greenland to become more familiar to real travellers who wish to visit this unique, unspoilt land.

Air Greenland operates a comfortable Boeing 757 and Airbus A330 aircraft on international flights.
