This operation marks the return of a route that had been suspended for over two decades, reinforcing Copenhagen\u2019s role as Scandinavia\u2019s primary international hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reopening of this route not only represents a milestone in SAS\u2019s network expansion but also responds to the growing interest in Greenland as an emerging destination. National Geographic recently included it in its 2025 &#8220;Best of the World&#8221; list, recognizing its value as a meeting point between extreme nature and cultural richness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Gateway to the Arctic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For SAS, Nuuk becomes a unique destination in its route network: an Arctic city with limited access and untapped tourism potential. The airline aims to offer its customers a distinct experience, centered on pristine landscapes, authentic local traditions, and an environment that invites reflection and discovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/2025\/04\/sas-reintroduces-its-european-business-class-with-a-clear-focus-on-the-premium-traveler.html\">SAS Reintroduces Its European Business Class with a Clear Focus on the Premium Traveler<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The launch coincides with the opening of Nuuk\u2019s new international airport, a key infrastructure project for the island\u2019s connectivity growth. SAS developed this operation in close collaboration with local partners like Air Greenland, highlighting a strategic cooperative approach at every stage of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flight Schedule and Frequencies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The new route will operate three times a week during the summer season, with the following schedule (local time):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Copenhagen \u2192 Nuuk<\/strong><br>Monday &amp; Wednesday: 09:00<br>Friday: 12:15<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Nuuk \u2192 Copenhagen<\/strong><br>Monday &amp; Wednesday: 11:05<br>Friday: 14:20<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Anko van der Werff, President and CEO of SAS, emphasized that this route reflects the company\u2019s long-term vision: &#8220;Our goal is to be a resilient, adaptable, and collaborative airline. Whether for family, work, or exploration, we want to facilitate purposeful travel, grounded in respect and responsibility. And as the world\u2019s most punctual airline, we take pride in offering that reliability on a route as significant as this one.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This new link enhances Greenland\u2019s connectivity and strengthens Copenhagen\u2019s position as Northern Europe\u2019s premier hub. The city expands its ability to connect travelers from around the world to Scandinavia\u2014and now to one of the planet\u2019s most enigmatic and remote regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid  uagb-post__image-position-top uagb-post__image-enabled uagb-block-815d8787     uagb-post__items uagb-post__columns-2 is-grid uagb-post__columns-tablet-2 uagb-post__columns-mobile-1 uagb-post__equal-height\" data-total=\"476\" style=\"\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<article class=\"uagb-post__inner-wrap\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class='uagb-post__image'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/2026\/05\/spirit-airlines-collapse-reveals-limits-of-ultra-low-cost-model-amid-premium-market-shift-says-delta-ceo.html\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"bookmark noopener noreferrer\" class='uagb-image-ratio-inherit'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Spirit-Airlines.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Spirit-Airlines.webp 800w, https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Spirit-Airlines-300x150.webp 300w, https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Spirit-Airlines-768x384.webp 768w, https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Spirit-Airlines-380x190.webp 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"uagb-post__title uagb-post__text\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/2026\/05\/spirit-airlines-collapse-reveals-limits-of-ultra-low-cost-model-amid-premium-market-shift-says-delta-ceo.html\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"bookmark noopener noreferrer\">Spirit Airlines Collapse Reveals Limits of Ultra-Low-Cost Model Amid Premium Market Shift, Says Delta CEO<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class='uagb-post__text uagb-post-grid-byline'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uagb-post__text uagb-post__cta wp-block-button\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"wp-block-button__link uagb-text-link\" style=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/2026\/05\/spirit-airlines-collapse-reveals-limits-of-ultra-low-cost-model-amid-premium-market-shift-says-delta-ceo.html\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"bookmark noopener noreferrer\">Read More<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/article>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<article class=\"uagb-post__inner-wrap\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class='uagb-post__image'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/2026\/05\/jetblue-and-united-airlines-activate-reciprocal-loyalty-benefits-under-blue-sky-alliance.html\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"bookmark noopener noreferrer\" class='uagb-image-ratio-inherit'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/United-Airlines-Jetblue.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/United-Airlines-Jetblue.webp 800w, https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/United-Airlines-Jetblue-300x150.webp 300w, https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/United-Airlines-Jetblue-768x384.webp 768w, https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/United-Airlines-Jetblue-380x190.webp 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"uagb-post__title uagb-post__text\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aviacionaldia.com\/en\/2026\/05\/jetblue-and-united-airlines-activate-reciprocal-loyalty-benefits-under-blue-sky-alliance.html\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"bookmark noopener noreferrer\">JetBlue and United Airlines Activate Reciprocal Loyalty Benefits Under &#8216;Blue Sky&#8217;
