Flight logistics
All of the relevant international flights can be made easily online. The dates and logistics below are for 2021.
Into Greenland:
To reach the start point of Kangerlussuaq situated in west Greenland, flights are with Air Greenland from Copenhagen, Denmark. This is currently the only carrier and route available from Europe or North America into Kangerlussuaq at this time of year. The Air Greenland flight on Monday 12 April 2021 leaving Copenhagen and arriving at Kangerlussuaq is the suggested entry flight to Kangerlussuaq (Flight time is 4 hours). This flight is not included in the expedition price and can easily be arranged on the Air Greenland website. As the start date of the expedition is fixed, this flight ticket need not be of the flexible type, however you should put in place trip cancellation insurance to cover you in the unlikely event you cannot undertake the expedition, through injury or illness etc.
Out of Greenland:
We ski into Isortoq to end our expedition on or about Tuesday 11 May 2021.
From nerarby Kulusuk, a runway enables planes to land for the onward flight on to Reykjavik, Iceland. Air Iceland Connect (not to be confused with Iceland Air) fly from Kulusuk to Reykjavik, Iceland, which is the gateway to East Greenland. The Air Iceland Connect flight can be easily arranged on its website, with date full-flexibility recommended. This flight is not included in the expedition price and is arranged by you. The flight departing on Friday 14 May 2021 arriving at Reykjavik downtown airport is the suggested exit flight.
From Reykjavik international airport, daily flights to many European/North American destinations are possible.
If you require assistance in making any of the international flight arrangements, please feel free to contact us, as we have expert knowledge on the flight logistics in and out of Greenland and Iceland and can readily offer assistance and advice.
When making flight arrangements, please bear in mind that if we encounter very bad weather or other unforeseen delay on the expedition, the end date of 11 May 2021 may be exceeded by up to several days. Although we will do our best to avoid any such delay, your flight tickets out of East Greenland should be of the flexible kind to allow date changes. Similarly, a fast moving expedition in good weather conditions can complete the expedition in 24-27 days, hence the possibility of departing Greenland earlier than the itinerary dates.
