  • Welcome to another trip report!
    On August 20, I flew Air Greenland from Copenhagen, Denmark to Kangerlussuaq, Greenland in Business Class. This was one of the coolest flights I've ever taken because I love flying to Arctic places.
    Air Greenland (previously known as Greenlandair) is the flag carrier and only airline based in Greenland. They operate a fleet of 32 aircraft and are owned by the Greenlandic Government. Besides running scheduled services and government-contracted flights to most villages in the country, they also support remote research stations and provide charter services for tourists and Greenland's energy and mineral-resource industries along with medivac operations during emergencies. They technically have seven subsidiaries: the airline, hotels, tour operators, a travel agency specialized in Greenlandic tourism, and the Arctic Umiaq Line, an unprofitable but government-subsidized ferry service that I am interested in doing a video on in the near future.
    This is the first Air Greenland trip report on RUclips, so I hope you enjoy it!

    Aircraft: Airbus A330-223 (OY-GRN)

    So fascinating that you made a trip report our national airline in Greenland! I’m from Greenland. I was working in Kangerlussuaq as a luggage handler in Air Greenland. At this time, you didn’t see me because I went home to my hometown to take a break before starting in the university in Nuuk 😄 I’m really glad that you are really happy about Air Greenland, the Airbus A330 is great. I hope you enjoyed your stay in Greenland, you are always welcome to visit!

    Thanks QFS yes it is 2023 Air Greenland delivers great service on board a red A330! Great presentation love the music and visual match on landing! Greenland is an absolute opposite to Australia geographically antipodes longitude wise. In July 1998, flew over Greenland on Lufthansa classic Boeing747-230 between Frankfurt and Vancouver over Greenland with great views in the summer middle of the day when in Australia is was middle of winter and midnight wow furthest to get away from home without leaving the earth!
    Thank you from Australia.
    I hope to visit Greenland some day soon!
    Well done QFS.

    I flew on this same plane in December 2006, same route. When the plane was departing SFJ, a service vehicle collided with the #2 engine and put the plane out of commission. The empty plane was ferried back to CPH for repairs later that week. In the meantime Air Greenland used it's soul Boeing 757 to cover the route. While I wasn't expecting it, I got to fly on both types of jetliners in the Air Greenland fleet. Naturally the A330 won.
