Nuuk’s runway has been lengthened to 2,200m and asphalting was completed a few weeks ago. The airport’s operator aims to open the runway on 28 November.
It will enable Nuuk to handle larger aircraft from Europe and North America for the first time.
“This new route meets the rising demand for unique, adventurous travel experiences, while reinforcing Copenhagen’s position as a key hub for Scandinavian connections worldwide,” says SAS chief executive Anko van der Werff.
SAS, which has a commercial partnership with Air Greenland, says the route’s opening remains subject to final governmental approval.
