For the first time ever, a U.S. airline will offer direct flights to Greenland, with twice-weekly service during the high season (June to September).
This is great news for travelers from North America, who can now more easily access not only Greenland’s capital but also the vast and diverse regions beyond. From Nuuk, travelers will have seamless connections to explore all of Greenland.
With New York as a major hub in North America, this new route makes it easier for travelers across the U.S. to reach Greenland. Similarly, Nuuk’s newly expanded international airport is set to become the gateway to all of Greenland:
“The opening of Nuuk’s International Airport is a historic moment for Greenland. It’s a game-changer that international jet planes can now fly directly into the nation’s capital,” says Anne Nivíka Grødem, CEO of Visit Greenland.
As Greenland continues to balance tourism growth with community well-being, Anne Nivíka Grødem emphasizes the benefits that this increased accessibility will bring to the entire country:
“Tourism in Greenland is about more than just our main destinations. We believe it should benefit all of Greenland, and we encourage travelers to discover the hidden treasures of our island, beyond our main tourism hubs. We invite you to experience the Great Nature of Greenland and be prepared for an adventure!”
This new flight route brings Greenland closer than ever to the world, offering travelers from the U.S. the opportunity to experience not just Nuuk, but the full spectrum of Greenland’s unique landscapes and communities.
